Fall is DBHR led/sponsored conference season

Virtual conference

Four great conferences will be held between August and October. Due to the ongoing pandemic, Peer Pathways, Co-occurring Conference, Foundational Community Supports Conference, and Conference on Ending Homelessness will be held virtually.

Attending a virtual conference is a great way to learn new skills and network with your peers without needing to pay the cost of time and money for travel. Scroll down to learn about each of the upcoming virtual conferences.

Register for the 2020 Peer Pathways Conference

Resiliency lives at the Fifth Annual Peer Pathways Conference. This is a great opportunity for Certified Peer Counselors to enhance their skills or folks to learn more about Certified Peer Counseling. Workforce development workshops and thought-provoking seminars will offer opportunities for networking and shared learning.

The 2020 Peer Pathways Conference is sponsored by the Health Care Authority and the Peer Workforce Alliance.

The 2020 Co-occurring conference is going virtual!

The annual conference will bring together experts from Washington and across the nation to share information about innovative, therapeutic techniques, skills, programs, practices, and policies. These experts will offer a relevant and enjoyable learning experience.

Conference details

Conference on Ending Homelessness

In order to ensure the safety of our conference attendees, the Washington State Housing Finance Commission and Washington Low Income Housing Alliance will hold their respective fall conferences virtually. While we will miss gathering in-person with our conference attendees, no travel means that the conference is accessible to a wider audience.

The annual Conference on Ending Homelessness brings together more than 600 people from across the state who are working to end homelessness. Attendees will experience shared learning, networking, advocacy, and community building. The virtual conference will offer discounted registration rates, and everyone who registers will have full access to Housing Washington conference programming.
