CELEBRATING COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

We look forward to seeing everyone again in Kennewick this June! The WBHC is a great opportunity for the behavioral health community to come together and share best practices about life-saving treatment and supports. We also want community behavioral health to join together in Kennewick to celebrate all the amazing people, programs, and agencies who are doing their utmost to provide quality services to those who need them, despite all the unknowns we’re facing. We’re busy finalizing all the sessions and speakers, and more information will be available when registration opens in late March!
