Convention Hall
A premier event at the conference, the State of the State Plenary provides guests the opportunity to hear from lead officials in the Pennsylvania Departments of Health and Public Welfare about current issues and initiatives that affect the mental health, drug and alcohol, children’s, and mental retardation systems. This year’s event incorporates lunch for all attendees preceding the presentations and discussions. The plenary is the capstone to three days of learning, networking, and discussions of policy affecting human services in the commonwealth.
Our speakers will share information about current initiatives and policies of their offices before opening the floor for questions and answers.
Moderated by George Kimes, PCPA executive director, speakers for 2008 are:
- Kevin Casey, Deputy Secretary, Office of Developmental Programs (invited)
- Joan Erney, Deputy Secretary, Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services
- Richard Gold, Deputy Secretary, Office of Children, Youth and Families
- Janice Kopelman, Acting Deputy Secretary, Health Promotion and Disease Prevention
- Stacey Mitchell, Acting Deputy Secretary, Quality Assurance (invited)
