The free event is set for 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 12 in the Regional Postsecondary Center on the Elizabethtown campus.
“This conference will benefit the college and community and it creates a unique networking opportunity regarding mental health,” said Kyle Kuenn, ECTC student and PTK Local Chapter President.
The conference will include a variety of presentations and other activities. Keynote speaker Dr. Jillian Carden will present Mental Health and Self-care’s Importance in Everyday Life. Other presentations and breakout sessions address adverse childhood experiences, emotional abuse and physical abuse, mental health and financial awareness, and sleep programs and mental health.
