Book a Speaker

Discuss why you would like to book a speaker. Is it in response to a situation? Is your community looking to open up conversation around mental health? 

Maybe create a team to bounce ideas off one another and discuss what type of impact a speaker could have on your community. 

Research the topics and speakers you are most interested in.  

Determine the type of event: In-Person vs. Virtual. Standard presentations are 60 minutes (45-50 minutes of speaking and time left for questions). 

Choose tentative dates and times for your booking. 

Speaker engagements can begin at $2,500 for a virtual event and begin at $4,550 for an in-person event. Pricing is all-inclusive with speaker honorariums, travel and accommodations, event team management training, and virtual tech assistance. The final total can vary depending on the specific speaker chosen. 

If you are interested in requesting funding assistance, learn more about the Active Minds Program Fund in the section below. 

It is recommended that you reach out to the Speakers Team to start the booking process as early as possible. Eight to 12 weeks prior to your event is most ideal. 

The busiest months are January-April and September-November. 

Together, we elevate healthcare by supporting the people who deliver it.
