THEME
BPSHI is in a constant state of dynamic growth: new members, new chapters, new sangat member interactions, new projects, and more. Amongst this growth, how do we stay aligned to what it means to be a part of BPSHI?
This year’s conference theme is centered around our revised mission statement “Together advocate for community-based wellness”. Taking each component of this statement as the four pillars to guide our growth, we will explore:
what it means to be together, how to act as advocates, recentering the community, how to promote wellness in new initiatives we pursue.
