The Behavioral Health Tech conference, the largest conference focused on expanding access to mental health and substance use services through technology and innovation, on Oct. 19 announced the winners of its inaugural awards program, the Young Innovators in Behavioral Health Awards, according to a conference press release. Created in partnership with Hopelab and Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute, the awards recognize 30 young leaders who have made significant contributions to the access, awareness and advancement of digital mental health care in the U.S. “Young innovators are rightfully demanding a more central role in defining solutions to problems they see play out in their everyday lives, and their contributions are clearly making a positive impact on mental health across the nation,” said Solome Tibebu, founder and CEO of Going Digital: Behavioral Health Tech. “We're beyond proud of this year's winners of the Young Innovators in Behavioral Health Awards and look forward to providing them with the resources, guidance and support they need to continue showcasing their ideas and digital solutions that are creating a better, healthier future for everyone.”
