The inaugural South Florida Mental Wellness Summit & Expo. October 2025 · Pembroke Pines, Florida
Where It All Began
The inaugural South Florida Mental Wellness Summit & Expo brought together professionals, organizations, advocates, and community members from across South Florida for a day focused on resilience, healing, empowerment, and meaningful connection.
Hundreds of attendees gathered at the Charles F. Dodge City Center in Pembroke Pines to be part of something that had never been done before in our community. From keynote conversations to the Vendor and Community Resource Expo, the day was filled with energy, connection, and real impact.
The response from the community was extraordinary. What started as a vision for a more connected, wellness-informed South Florida became a day that reminded everyone in the room why this work matters.
