A Visionary in Arts and Education

"This event represents breaking boundaries, a concept my mother stood for. Mom’s legacy inspires my efforts with my partners at Carrberry Companies and CommHIT, guiding job seekers to fulfill their aspirations and reach for the stars."
Exploring the Theme of Coopetition
The 2025 theme, 'Coopetition: The Art of Competing and Collaborating', invites discussion on how entities can strategically join forces to address complex issues that one organization cannot tackle in isolation. Through a range of sessions and expert panels, CommHIT25 will provide insights into how businesses can share resources, collaborate effectively, and achieve unprecedented success in their fields.
This event is perfectly tailored for those navigating competitive landscapes, forging new partnerships, and innovating under challenging circumstances. Allen invites all professionals and leaders to participate and share in this significant dialogue.
Pre-Symposium Focused on Resiliency
On December 4, a pre-symposium will delve into ideas surrounding fire rescue-driven care and workforce development models designed to enhance community health. CommHIT is known for its crucial contributions to emergency care processes and mobile integrated health programs. These services are vital as they proactively deliver medical, behavioral, and social support directly to patients through mobile teams and cutting-edge technology.
Expanding Community Partnerships
With its new office in San Diego, CommHIT continues its expansion efforts. The organization has established meaningful collaborations with several local entities, ranging from Scripps Medical Center to community-based organizations. This growth mission aligns perfectly with its commitment to excellence in health services and community support.
CommHIT actively partners with Carrberry Companies to promote initiatives that bolster resilient, community-centered health models. Together, they express excitement about potential achievements at this upcoming event.
A Celebration of Courage and Care
Dr. Kendra Siler, the President and CEO of CommHIT, invites all to join the celebration. "On December 5, we will celebrate courage, care, and innovation. We are thrilled to have Debbie Allen share her insights. Her understanding of coopetition will lead to enlightening discussions and collaborations among our attendees," she expressed.
Moreover, the event will honor Allen's mother's legacy with a special reading of her poem, “Hawk,” originally written for NASA’s Apollo 11 Moon Mission. This tribute reflects Allen’s deep connection to her family's history and the pivotal roles they played in shaping aspects of American space exploration.
