HARMONY Behavioral Health Summit
HARMONY (Helping to Access Reliable Mental Healthcare Opportunities for North Carolina Youth), a grant-funded initiative focused on expanding mental and behavioral health support for youth, invites you to attend the first annual youth behavioral health summit on March 7, 2026.
The event will take place in the School of Education on the campus of North Carolina Central University. The summit, scheduled from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., will include a keynote presentation and educational sessions designed for youth (13+), parents, and educators/clinicians. Additionally, the event will highlight the work of HARMONY and offer valuable opportunities for networking, collaborating, and sharing community resources.
HARMONY is funded by the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina Foundation and serves young people in Durham, Person, and Vance Counties through a multi-pronged approach that includes:
- Evidence-informed training using the Stress First Aid model
- Telehealth counseling expansion
- Youth engagement to enhance local awareness and community-based support networks
- Development of research-practice partnerships (RPPs)
These efforts aim to eliminate barriers to receiving high-quality mental and behavioral health services across the region.
