Community Access Tickets
A ticket to the summit shouldn't be why you can't come.
We built the Oregon BIPOC Mental Health Summit for our community. Community Access tickets are free — no application, no income verification, no questions asked.
Who this ticket is for
If a paid ticket would create a meaningful barrier to attending, this ticket is for you. That might mean you're:
- A community member, not a working mental health professional
- A student or recent graduate
- Working, but in a job where attending a professional summit isn't covered by your employer
- An elder, caregiver, or parent
- Anyone for whom paying for the summit would mean not paying for something else
We trust our community to take what they need.
What you get
The same access as any other attendee: full day of programming across all three tracks, continental breakfast, and a boxed lunch.
Why we do this
Mental health care in the United States has long been gated by class, race, and language. We're hosting this summit to push against those gates — and we won't put one of our own up at the door.
The summit is underwritten by foundation funding and supported by our sponsors. We are able to offer Community Access tickets because of that support.
