Integrated Care Summit 2026:
Bridging the Gaps to Whole-Person Care

Friday, May 15 – Sunday, May 17, 2026
Interlocken, Colorado

Health happens everywhere — in the dental chair, the doctor’s office and the conversations that connect them. This summit brings together dental hygienists, dentists, physicians, nurses, pharmacists, behavioral health professionals and public health leaders for two days of learning and collaboration focused on whole-person care.

This isn’t your typical conference. Expect hands-on workshops, networking receptions and wellness activities — yoga, guided mindfulness, golf and spa time — that make space for both professional growth and personal renewal.

Together, we’ll move from theory to practice and build systems that close the gaps between oral, medical and behavioral health.
