Join Midwest Youth Services for an inspiring evening dedicated to changing the conversation around mental health and building a stronger, more connected community.

The evening will begin at 5:30 p.m. at The Chapel, where nationally recognized mental health advocate, author, and speaker Ross Szabo will deliver a powerful 60-minute keynote presentation. Drawing from more than 20 years of experience, Ross will challenge the stigma surrounding mental health while offering practical tools to build resilience, strengthen relationships, and encourage meaningful conversations.

Following the keynote, guests are invited to continue the experience at Chapter II Event Hall for an evening of community, connection, and celebration. Enjoy a catered dinner, cash bar, live music, silent auction, interactive wellness and mental health experiences, and opportunities to connect with others who are passionate about supporting youth and strengthening families.
