This conference brings together colleagues from pediatric primary care, behavioral health, public health, policy, and family advocacy who share a commitment to advancing team-based integrated behavioral health care for children and families across Massachusetts.

You will hear directly from practice teams, youth and families, and state and national leaders about what is working, where barriers persist, and what is needed to strengthen and sustain integrated behavioral health in pediatric primary care. Speakers will share lessons from across the Commonwealth alongside experience from other states, offering practical ideas you can apply within your own organization and community.
