In keeping with its mission to support children and families in their pursuit of mental wellness, for the past 13 years, Clarity has hosted Claritycon, its annual children’s mental health conference that provides professional development (including CEU, CNE and MT contact hours) to 600+ educators, therapists, physicians, nurses, social workers, mental health professionals and community members. Claritycon2026 will be held on Monday and Tuesday, July 13 and 14, 2026 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the
