Throughout this weekend we've talked a lot about health: how to encourage healthy eating, how to make healthy food accessibly, and how programs can support people struggling with mental health, to name a few. Chances are, though, when you return to work next week some real challneges will awaity, blocking your way to implementing what you've learned here. This workshop is a collective problem-solving event where you can bring forward an issue you're working on. A panel of experts and audience members will offer a fresh perspective and insightful experience to help you along.
