Muslim Mental Health Conference

Friday, March 1, 2024, 8:00 AM - Saturday, March 2, 2024, 5:00 PM, Li Ka Shing Center for Learning and Knowledge (LKSC), Stanford, CA

The history of Muslims addressing mental health extends back to Prophetic times, and to inform our current practice and future we must acknowledge the lessons of the past and as we look towards the future. This year’s conference aims to broadly examine the impact of technology on Muslim mental health and Islamic Psychology. We recognize the vast implications of technology, ranging from community education and awareness; the reality (and illusion) of interconnectedness; the use of tech applications; and innovations in prevention, assessment, clinical practice, care, and research.
