Mental Health was identified as the top chronic condition of concern for Houston employers in the HBCH 2019 Houston Employers Healthcare Benefits Cost, Trends & Interest Survey. We hope you can join us for this comprehensive forum that will address key elements of this growing employer concern. We will address the evidence of the need for employers focus on mental health and its relationship to other costly health conditions. We will provide and discuss proven and developing employer strategies.

Our agenda will feature key national and local stakeholders.
