Exploring the Future of Behavioral Health Design at the Ohana Center in Monterey
On Thursday, November 6th, NBBJ hosts an in-person tour and panel discussion at the Montage Health Ohana Center for Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health in Monterey, CA—one of the nation’s most forward-thinking models for behavioral healthcare.
The private event brings together healthcare and design leaders including Ohana's Dr. Susan Swick, neuroscientist and NBBJ Fellow Dr. John Medina and NBBJ Firmwide Design Leader Jonathan Ward for a conversation about “What’s Next for Behavioral Health?” Moderated by NBBJ’s Ryan Mullenix, the panel explores Ohana’s guiding insights—from translating neuroscience into design strategies to creating scalable, human-centered models that inform the next generation of behavioral healthcare environments.
While attendance is limited, the discussion underscores a growing national dialogue about designing behavioral health facilities that are not only clinically effective but also compassionate. Interested in attending? Contact us for more event details.
