50th annual Minnesota Prevention Program Sharing Conference

The Minnesota Prevention Program Sharing Conference is celebrating its 50th Anniversary of supporting people engaged in substance misuse prevention. Countless communities, agencies, and individuals come together to do this work, including you. Your contributions to the prevention field and dedication to public health make a difference in our state. This work is not easy. It can be downright exhausting, difficult to see a way through. Our annual conference provides an opportunity for everyone who is engaging in this work everyday to come together, share ideas, and learn from one and other. We are looking forward to seeing you this October!
