Prevention Summit 2026 Memories

Submitted by Isaac Wulff on Friday, October 30, 2026 - 2:33pm.

Hello!

Since I just got back from Prevention Summit and all the memories are still swirling around in my noggin, I thought I would start a place to share your recollections of the experience before they fade into the background of our busy lives. I'll go first...

  • So many familiar faces! And attached to each face are stories of mutual struggle, learning experiences, and common understanding.
  • Several times I passed two people I know talking and thought to myself, "Oh that's great! I wanted to introduce them anyway."
  • Missing so many sessions I wanted to attend because they were at the same time as another awesome session!
  • Talking to people coming out of sessions with a look of wonder on their faces because they just learned about something they can put to work in their community to build health.
  • Really good food! (Like, maybe the best conference food I've ever had.)
  • Two words... En Route. (Seriously, those folks were amazing!)
  • Two opportunities to train some INCREDIBLE youth in the basics of the SPF and how to make a difference. They've got this!
  • A long and restorative chat with the legendary Miss Ann from the Quileute Tribe on the final day. So much wisdom in one person.
  • And finally... "Can I get a viiiiibe check!" (Our incredible emcee Sam Brown's catchphrase.)

If you have a Summit memory you'd like to share, post it below. I hope to see you all again, either at Summit or someplace in between.

In community,

Isaac Wulff
