Last year the "Journey to Wellness: Lifelong Recovery from Mental Illness” free community mental health research symposium attracted a standing room only audience (over 1700 people). Nearly 20% of the audience was health care professionals earning Continuing Education Credits through our partnership with Sarasota Memorial Healthcare System. We also offer an information exhibit space for local mental health care providers and support organizations to share their services with the community in attendance.
