The prevalence of mental health and substance abuse conditions in the United States is increasing in frequency, placing new challenges and demands on healthcare providers and their facilities. 

Join us for this one day interactive, collaborative, problem-solving workshop intended to enable design professionals to employ physical design strategies and methodologies that support improved care for behavioral health.
