This is such a validating conference. It is nice to hear about successes and challenges experienced in the field, nationally. It is helpful to know that the same things we see in our state are happening elsewhere and to have a place to hear about what works in communities across the country."

I promote this conference highly.  Applicability of what I learn is very broad... with local philanthropic organizations, inside treatment programs and serving on a variety of commission, coalitions and councils.  The complexity is well know; the silos continue to need crumbling.  I enjoy creating my "tidbits from Stanford" sheets to use throughout the year."

I learned so much information as a first time attendee.  A variety of evidence based practices were presented. A lot of these strategies appear feasible to implement in the schools and are engaging. There are digital and paper resources, videos, and even games that are good for student, families, staff, and district level policy decision makers. Very impressive!"
