“The only constant in life is change” - Heraclitus.
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the ASU Center for Applied Behavioral Health Policy (CABHP) has evolved the 2020 Summer Institute into an online synchronous and interactive educational series, supported by both a downloadable interactive app, printed publication, and conference box mailed to each registrant.
The overarching theme of the educational sessions will address the greatest needs within today’s rapidly changing behavioral health landscape. Sessions will be delivered via video conferencing applications on Tuesdays and Thursdays over the course of three months: July, August and September. Registrants can earn over 30 hours of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) from a variety of governing bodies including NADAAC, NASW-AZ, NBCC, and APA.
This year, our conference is streaming live online and paired with a high quality print publication as well as an interactive mobile app to showcase the best in behavioral health.
The 21st Annual Summer Institute - “Brave New World.” Streaming online Tuesdays and Thursdays, July 14 through September 24, 2020.

The theme of this year’s conference is Brave New World and will focus on the evolution of service delivery in light of the current state of our world.
Behavioral health of individuals and families remains the overarching focus of the Summer Institute, and a series of online sessions will examine topics such as the continuum of care, healthcare policy, self-care and compassion fatigue, drug and alcohol education, industry revenue and budgeting, peer and family support, recovery, and healthcare disparities. All content is delivered in consideration of new technology, trends and innovations.
