Walsh University will host a day-long symposium on the current state of psychiatric/mental health issues within our community and region. The symposium will bring together thought leaders from across the area and the country to discuss our response to the current crisis facing our communities including the addiction, mental health, and psychiatric needs of our community. The focus of this year’s conference is the impact of mental health and addiction on children and families, innovations in the treatment of mental health and addiction, and the impact of policy and government on mental health and addiction.
