The 2025 Reimagine Conference is where awareness sparks action and communities come together to drive meaningful change. This year’s theme, “Hope in Action: Mobilizing Communities to Respond and Build Collective Strength,” embodies our commitment to turning knowledge into solutions that foster resilience, healing, and community well-being.
Join leading experts, practitioners, and advocates in trauma-informed care, public health, education, social services, and community development for a transformative day of insight, collaboration, and actionable strategies to create stronger, more responsive communities.
Here’s what your team can gain from Reimagine 2025:
- Practical strategies to respond to trauma, build trust, and strengthen resilience.
- Professional growth through CEUs, networking, and skill-building opportunities.
- Organizational impact with tools to reduce burnout, improve collaboration, and inspire teams.
The Science and Power of Hope
In her keynote, Dr. Pharris will explore the science behind hope and its profound impact on individuals and organizations. Participants will gain insights into the core tenets of hope — goals, pathways, and agency thinking — and learn how cultivating a hopeful mindset can serve as a buffer against stress, adversity, and burnout. This session will provide practical strategies to inspire hope and drive meaningful change within our communities.
