The CCARE Immersion offers several ways to engage, share your work, and connect with others. Each format is designed to foster learning, reflection, and meaningful connection within a supportive community.
The Compassion Showcase takes place on Sunday morning and will be an opportunity for registered participants to share their compassion work with the community in an open exhibition format. The showcase is a unique opportunity to highlight your compassion initiatives, spark conversation, and connect with others who have shared interests.

Poster Presentations
All registered participants may apply to present in this category

Poster presentations are reserved for research-focused work, including completed studies, ongoing projects, or evidence-informed initiatives related to compassion, well-being, or aligned fields. This format emphasizes informal, interactive discussion rather than formal presentation. You can expect one-on-one and small group conversations where participants explore your methods, findings, and implications together. This is an opportunity to receive thoughtful feedback, exchange ideas, and contribute to a shared understanding of the science and practice of compassion.
CCARE Showcase Tables
CCARE alumni who are registered participants may apply to present in this category

CCARE Showcase Tables provide CCARE alumni with space to share their current work, programs, or initiatives and connect with others in the community. The focus is on relationship-building and dialogue rather than promotion. Participants can expect meaningful conversations, opportunities to exchange ideas, and the potential to spark collaborations grounded in shared interests.
Featured Talks
ACT graduates who are registered participants may apply to present in this category

These talks offer ACT graduates the opportunity to share insights, experiences, or applications of compassion-based work with the broader group. Presentations are concise and focused, with an emphasis on clear takeaways and real-world relevance.
