Building Momentum By Advancing Better Care

The 2026 OPEN MINDS Service Excellence Institute is designed to help organizations strengthen clinical resilience, elevate operational performance, and build service lines that deliver measurable value. This event equips leaders to make strategic, data-informed decisions rather than react to a turbulent market.

Through real-world case studies and executive-level insights, attendees will gain forward-looking knowledge to confidently respond to emerging clinical trends, expand and refine service offerings, optimize operational workflows, and leverage innovative technologies to deliver exceptional care. Join us to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving behavioral health landscape.

Register your team today to learn directly from top executives of leading organizations nationwide who are redefining innovation and consumer excellence. Discover how they are turning uncertainty into opportunity—and how your organization can do the same.
