This session examines how Perkins&\;Will\, in partnership with Johnson County\, Kansas designed a 130\,000 SF integrated Health Services Building that not only co-locates Mental Health\, Health &\; Environment\, and Aging &\; Human Services but also integrates the care within a single\, unified campus. \nDesigned as a community-based public health anchor\, the project advances Public Health 3.0 by aligning space\, operations\, and workforce needs to support whole-person care\, interdisciplinary collaboration\, and equitable access\, particularly relevant for rural and underserved populations. The presentation moves beyond form-making to demonstrate how trauma-informed\, universal\, and biophilic design strategies directly support care integration\, staff wellbeing\, and long-term adaptability. \nAttendees will gain transferable design and planning strategies for public-sector and community-based healthcare projects\, showing how architecture can strengthen public health delivery\, reduce barriers to care\, and future-ready facilities amid changing community needs.  LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
