Cobb Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Sept. 14.
Wellstar Health System is bolstered by the strong partnership of the Cobb Chamber and its members. Recognizing the importance of mental health and wellness for the individuals, families, and employees in Cobb County, we invite you to participate in the Wellstar Foundation’s next Healthcare Innovation Series event: Behavioral Health & Wellness, on Thursday, September 23rd from 12pm-1:30pm (EST).
Did you know in Georgia nearly 4 million people are suffering from a behavioral health condition and 61% of those receive no treatment? In fact, Georgia ranks 34 out of the 50 states for providing access to behavioral health services and the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the need for these already stretched resources. Now is the time to transform healthcare.
This virtual event will bring together community, corporate and foundation leaders for an important, interactive conversation, delving into the complexities of behavioral health and working together toward building a sustainable and innovative network of support in Georgia. Featuring keynote speaker Dr. Jud Brewer, Executive Medical Director of Behavioral Health at Sharecare, Director of Research and Innovation, the Mindfulness Center, Brown University, and New York Times best-selling author of Unwinding Anxiety.
