STI attracts staff from the Division of Behavioral Health, Division of Developmental Disabilities, Department of Corrections, Department of Youth Services, Department of Family Services, other statewide organizations, and individuals in private practice. STI historically brings over 1,000 behavioral health professionals together to learn about the latest research in the field regarding medications, evidence-based treatment, and other issues related to populations served. There are three days of workshops with over 40 separate sessions that will broaden knowledge and enhance the understanding of the critical services provided to the citizens of Missouri.
