Young Minds Matter: Healing, Justice, and Connection for Mental Wellbeing
Since 2010, the foundation has hosted a free biennial conference in Houston focusing on children’s mental health topics.
The Young Minds Matter 2021 Virtual Conference Series
The Hogg Foundation held a free virtual event for people who care about children, youth, families, and caregivers. Like previous Young Minds Matter conferences, the focus was on children, transition-age youth and their caregivers, with an added emphasis on engaging historically excluded and underrepresented groups.
Past Conferences
2019 - Young Minds Matter: Communities Connecting for Well-being
Young Minds Matter: Communities Connecting for Well-being was a free, one-day training event for people who care about children, youth, families, and caregivers. This event theme grew out of the foundation’s new strategic direction, which focuses on changing community conditions and the root causes that contribute to poor mental health, especially in communities that have been subjected to bias and discrimination. Like previous Young Minds Matter conferences, we focused on children, transition-age youth, and their caregivers, and explored the many ways communities can promote well-being, including mental health in everyday life.
