Event Details
Mental Health Matters (MHM) launched in 2023 as a three-year community-wide initiative to strengthen the local mental health system. Together, we’ve tackled barriers, piloted new strategies, and seen what’s possible when a community unites around wellness.
This year’s summit is about:
Reflection: Looking back at what we’ve achieved since the 2024 summit
Progress: Sharing the results of our collective efforts through the Community Progress Report
Sustainability: Exploring how we’ll carry this work forward as the pilot phase concludes
You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of how far we’ve come—and how you can play a role in what comes next.
Event Features:
Resource Fair (3:30pm – 5pm): Explore local programs, services, and tools that support mental wellness for both adults and youth.
Community Progress Report Presentation (5:45pm – TBD): Learn about the measurable impact of MHM’s work and where the community is headed next.
Networking (All Afternoon): Meet partners and neighbors who share your commitment to improving mental health in Bartholomew County.
