We are thrilled to share that our 3rd Annual OCD Southern California Conference (March 24, 2018) was an overwhelming success! This was a sold out event with over 250 attendees including individuals with OCD, family members, and professionals! We are incredibly grateful for the enthusiasm and support for this event and hope to continue expanding our ability to reach more people for next year’s conference. In particular we are grateful to our inspiring keynote speakers, Clint and Joanie Malarchuk, the many clinicians who donated their time to run breakout sessions, and the treatment centers who provided resource information to attendees and financially supported the event. Importantly, the event ran smoothly thanks to the dedication of a number of committed and talented volunteers who helped with everything from parking to IT. Finally, we are immensely thankful for Mariner’s Church in Irvine, which provided a beautiful space and catering for the event.
