In May 2025, FACCES launched the inaugural Are the Children Well? Symposium, bringing together families, partners, and leaders to center youth and family mental wellness. Founded on the belief that thriving youth create thriving communities, the event marked a powerful milestone for FACCES’ Mental Wellness Pillar. Voices from business, education, government, public health, and parents shared stories, resources, and lived experiences—highlighting the collective role we all play in supporting the wellbeing of our children.

Building on that momentum, FACCES is excited to announce the 2026 Are the Children Well Symposium on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, with a new focus on physical health and wellbeing. The event will offer youth, families, and the broader community hands-on education, experiences, and resources across diverse physical health systems and practices, supporting healthy lifestyle choices for the whole family.
