HOPE FOR THE DAY (HFTD) has rallied a coalition of more than 40 organizations from community non-profit agencies to academic institutions — all dedicated to a day filled with Education, Inspiration, and Activation on mental health. The 2019 Conversations Summit will include interactive workshops lead by a wide spectrum of community organizations, followed by panels of community leaders and representatives. The Summit also features workshops and speakers on topics crucial to youth today, all intersecting with mental health. These include school stressors, self-expression, economics, identity and orientation, social and criminal justice, personal agency, and family dynamics. The event, which is free and runs from 10:00am-5:00pm on September 7, 2019, is graciously hosted by the University of Illinois at Chicago the Isadore & Sadie Dorin Forum (U.I.C. Forum).
