Southwest Wisconsin Mental Health and Wellness Summit

Southwest Technical College - Fennimore, WI
Register Here

At the heart of the 6th Annual Community Wellness Summit is the Community Wellness Group, formerly known as the Southwest Behavioral Health Partnership. This group has been dedicated to improving the mental health and well-being of individuals and communities in southwestern Wisconsin. Through partnerships with local organizations and community members, we have worked to provide access to mental health resources and services for those in need. As the host of this year’s summit, the Community Wellness Group is committed to providing a safe and inclusive space where community members can come together to learn, share and connect. By attending this summit, you’ll be supporting the important work by helping to create a more supportive and thriving community for everyone.

The summit is an opportunity to come together with other community members to learn and engage in important conversations about mental health. It is our belief that everyone benefits when we are all able to openly discuss and support each other in this critical aspect of overall well-being.

Throughout the day, we will have inspiring speakers, informative breakout sessions, and valuable networking opportunities. Our goal is to provide you with the tools and resources necessary to take responsibility for mental health conversations in your own life and to create thriving and supportive communities for everyone.
