10th Annual Wellness Together Conference

Sept 9 - 11, 2026 | San Diego, CA

The Wellness Together Conference brings together educators, workplace leaders, mental health professionals, and policymakers who are committed to strengthening human connection, hope, and resilience for the next generation.

Because when people feel supported, connected, and mentally well, students learn, employees thrive, and communities grow stronger.

& MORE!

At the 10th Wellness Together Conference, we believe that some of the most powerful moments happen between the sessions.

Throughout WTC10, we are intentionally creating space and time for attendees to connect, reflect, and build relationships with colleagues who share a commitment to strengthening mental wellness, connection, and resilience in the places where people learn, work, and live.

From informal gatherings to shared moments of reflection, WTC10 will offer opportunities to step away from the schedule and engage in the kind of human connection that inspires new ideas, partnerships, and lasting impact.

We also encourage attendees to take advantage of the many opportunities to connect throughout San Diego, whether over a meal, a walk along the waterfront, or a conversation with new colleagues.

Make Time for Meaningful Connection

More connections opportunities during the conference will be announced soon.

Stay tuned - there’s more to come.

We understand the urgent demands you face every day.

You don’t have to carry it alone!
The Wellness Together Conference offers you access to valuable resources and meaningful connections that will inspire and recharge your passion for supporting youth.
