2010 CMHS National GAINS Center Conference
March 17-19, 2010
Coronado Springs Resort in Orlando, FL

On behalf of the CMHS National GAINS Center, I am pleased to invite you to our 2010 National Conference at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL, March 17-19, 2010. This year's conference is presented by the National Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare. The 2010 conference builds upon a joint initiative of the GAINS Center and the National Council: the National Leadership Forum on Behavioral Health/Criminal Justice Services, whose report A Call to Action: Ending an American Tragedy, was just released. To view the report, go to http://www.gainscenter.samhsa.gov/html/nlf/default.asp
We hope that you will be an integral part of this exciting conference.
The 2010 National Conference represents a return to where the conference was born. Our first conference was held in April 2000 in Miami with 50 presenters and 400 attendees. We have held four conferences since - in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Boston, and Washington, DC – each one with higher attendance than the last. In 2008 nearly 1,100 people attended the conference in Washington, DC. Please join us again in Florida to mark our 10 year anniversary.
