Affirming our Identities

Spend the mornings learning and the afternoons exploring everything that makes Juneau, Alaska (Dzántik'i Héeni) incredibly scenic and utterly unforgettable. Juneau is on the ancestral land of the Tlingit people, Áak’w Kwáan and T’aaḵu Kwáan. Soaring mountains, coastal vistas, epic glaciers and Alaskan wildlife await you. Take a walk in the world's largest temperate rainforest; kayak on the Inside Passage, book a flight seeing tour of the mighty Mendenhall Glacier; discover the history and rich culture of Southeast Alaska's indigenous peoples; indulge in fresh seafood; or try your luck at gold panning. Adventure is calling you!  

Relax and breathe in the sea air on board a deluxe catamaran as we cruise together through the Alaskan wilderness. You'll have the opportunity to view and learn about humpback whales, orca, sea lions, porpoise, seals, eagles, and more! Transportation will be provided from the hotel to Auke Bay and back once the tour has concluded. Expect to spend about 3 hours at sea. This opportunity can be added on at the time of your registration. 

Your conference registration includes access to our welcome reception held the night before sessions begin, May 14th at The Crystal Saloon. Be greeted by your conference staff, pick up your conference packet, visit with others in the mental health field, enjoy delicious appetizers and a no host bar.

Our conference will take place in Centennial Hall, located in the heart of downtown Juneau. The center is fully accessible and features state-of-the-art facilities to ensure a comfortable and productive experience for all attendees. 

Dive a bit deeper and have a better understanding into things that are important to you and the people/clients with whom you work. Three, two-hour sessions will be offered as additional Mastermind Sessions, focusing on specific topics. These additional sessions can be added on at the time of your registration. Select only 1 session during check-out as all are occurring at the same time.
