Those in attendance discussed and shared their thoughts on prescription drug misuse and prevention methods. Throughout the two days, members and leaders had the opportunity to interact with others in the coalition, attend multiple breakout sessions, and listen to keynote speakers; one of which was Kevin Hines. Hines was only 1 of 36 people who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge and survived. He spreads the message of living a healthy mental lifestyle, all around the world.
