The National Association for Rural Mental Health Annual Conference is the premier interdisciplinary event for rural families, community members, clinicians, researchers, administrators, and policy professional and provides great information and networking opportunities regarding all aspects of rural practice, research, and policy.

For over forty years, the National Association for Rural Mental Health conference has provided the best venue to learn from their peers and partake in the networking opportunities for those interested in improving access, availability and acceptability of mental health and substance abuse services to rural communities.

This year’s conference theme “Ahupua`a: From the Mountains to the Sea” is bringing together rural community stakeholders from practice (children and adult services, early intervention, prevention, health, juvenile justice, etc.) research sciences (prevention, intervention, treatment, integration, evaluation, etc. ) and policy (mental health, substance abuse, health, justice, law enforcement, prevention, etc.) to discuss the path ahead for rural communities in the face of the changing health/mental health environment.

Conference attendees have access to four days of great events, July 30 – August 2, 2015 at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii with a rural focus including preconferences, keynote speakers, interactive workshops, track sessions, and fun networking opportunities.
