Bridging Mental Health and Child Welfare

The Minnesota Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) welcomes you to a community-centered gathering that brings together a diverse network of professionals committed to the mental health and well-being of children, families and caregivers. Whether you’re a psychotherapist,  faith leader, school counselor, healer or advocate, your voice and wisdom are welcome here. 

Let’s strengthen the connections between community care and professional practice. Your lived experience and leadership matter. 

All are welcome. Come as you are. 

Together, we will: 

  • Share insights and best practices across disciplines 

  • Build collective strategies to support child welfare and mental health 

  • Hold space for healing, collaboration and innovation. 

Let’s strengthen the connections between community care and professional practice. Your lived experience and leadership matter.
