PACE Healthcare Capital was delighted to attend The Kennedy Forum’s Alignment for Progress conference this week. Alignment for Progress provides the large-scale coordination of a strategic national vision uniting stakeholders across aisle and industry. Julia Monfrini Peev, Jon David Willingham, and Nans RIVAT, as well as Hafeezah Muhammad (CEO of our portfolio company, Backpack Healthcare), joined leading #policymakers, #innovators, #advocates, #providers, and #payers for a powerhouse event. Patrick J. Kennedy’s opening keynote set a powerful tone with the ambitious 90-90-90 goal for 2033: ✅ 🔎 90% of people screened for mental health conditions ✅ 🏨 90% receiving high-quality, evidence-based care ✅ 🙌 90% managing their symptoms and achieving recovery Tech innovation, telehealth, and policy reform emerged as the game-changers we need to reduce stigma, expand access, and to redefine mental healthcare in pursuit of parity of care. Some particular highlights: 📖 The extraordinarily inspiring panelists featured in "Profiles in Mental Health Courage,” (the new book by Patrick J. Kennedy and Stephen Fried) who bravely opened up about their mental health journeys and systemic obstacles 📈 💡 The Economics of Mental Health with Caroline Pearson, Dr. Ashwin Vasan and Nathaniel Counts – shifting the focus to align funding with real care outcomes 🚀 Innovations to Address the Opioid Crisis, tackling one of the biggest challenges in healthcare with urgency We’re grateful to have been part of this powerful dialogue that is clearly accelerating the shift towards mental health parity and better access to care for everyone.
