We are excited to announce that we had more than 180 attendees, 14 exhibitors, and 17 informative presentations at the 2018 South Texas Adolescent Health Summit. We, along with our event partners, loved hosting this event for you and ask that you take a moment to complete the post-event survey. Doing so will give us great insight into what went well, what didn’t, and help us determine a path forward for future events.
