The 2023 Minnesota Prevention Program Sharing Conference took place on October 17th and 18th in Brainerd at Cragun's Resort.
"For 49 years, the Minnesota Prevention Program Sharing Conference has supported people engaged in substance misuse prevention. Countless communities, agencies, and individuals come together to do this work, including you. Your contributions to the prevention field and dedication to public health make a difference in our state. This work is not easy. It can be downright exhausting, and difficult to see a way through. Our annual conference provides an opportunity for everyone who is engaging in this work everyday to come together, share ideas, and learn from one another. This year’s conference theme “Support Connections. Build Prevention. Engage Communities” will focus on collaboration, expanding our networks, and supporting health & wellbeing through primary prevention. " (https://mnprc.org/conference/)
FamilyWise Services had an exhibitor's table at this year's conference. It was great to have a presence at this conference for the first of many times as there were many presenters, exhibitors, and participants who we have worked with in the past as well as currently. In fact, our 100 Cups of Coffee Interview initiative was highlighted in Crow Wing Energized's breakout session presentation.
Next year's conference will be the 50th iteration of this event and will be celebrated as such. It will take place on October 15-16 in St. Cloud, Minnesota.
So, mark your calendars and we will see you next year!
