The 2019 Colorado Health Symposium will take place July 24-26 at the Keystone Conference Center in Keystone, Colorado. The Symposium, a national health conference, is a unique chance to interact with cross-sector experts and dedicated professionals who are leading the way in addressing health equity. Registration dates typically open in mid-May each year. Be on the lookout for Symposium theme information and registration details soon! 

Our 2018 Symposium, Achieving Equity in Behavioral Health, focused on the complex ecosystem of behavioral health and the role that inequity plays, from prevention to recovery. From a worsening opioid epidemic to pervasive issues with access to care, Coloradans are facing tough barriers that keep health out of reach. Watch archived sessions from the conference here.
