About this event

The Texas System of Care (TxSOC) and the Alliance for Adolescent Recovery and Treatment in Texas (AART-TX) are pleased to invite you to the 2020 Policy Roundtable on Serving Youth with Co-Occurring Disorders.

The purpose of this free event is to examine opportunities and develop priorities to better support young Texans with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. Invited participants include youth and families with lived experience, local and state stakeholders, service providers, and national level experts. To facilitate this critical discussion, the invitation list is limited. You have been carefully selected due to your experience and expertise. We hope you will join us.

The Alliance for Adolescent Recovery and Treatment in Texas and the Texas System of Care have set aside funds to compensate young people in recovery as well as family members of young people in recovery for their time participating in this Policy Roundtable. Information will be gathered during your registration to help us determine your eligibility. If you identify as a young person in recovery or are a family member of a young person in recovery and are interested in more information about these funds, please click the appropriate checkbox on the registration screen.
