Cesar Chavez Conference focuses on behavioral health - Arizona State University

Hundreds of behavioral health professionals from communities across Arizona will gather on Friday, March 28, at Arizona State University’s West campus for the Fourth Annual Cesar Chavez Behavioral Health Conference. Hosted by ASU’s College of Human Services, the 2008 gathering focuses on “Community-Based Social Justice in Recovery.”

Featured speakers include Stanford University Professor Amado Padilla, founder and editor of the Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Science; scholar and author Anthony Asadullah Samad, known for his fiery analysis of social, political and economic issues that influence American society; and Stella Pope Duarte, the award-winning, Valley-based author of Let Their Spirits Dance and If I Die in Juarez.”*
