Garrison attended regional, national, and international conferences across a variety of disciplines including mental health care, psychiatry, and psychoanalysis, as well as anthropology and cultural studies. She frequently presented her research related to community-based support systems in workshops or seminar presentations at universities, hospitals, and research or community centers in the greater New York City area. Of note in this series are the materials related to a presentation at the National Institute of Mental Health Staff College in December 1980, "Natural Support Systems in Minority Communities." Much of the material in this series relates explicitly to research completed under the Inner-City Support Systems (ICSS) grant at the College/University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. However (as with her manuscripts and publications), Garrison frequently referenced earlier Bronx-based research alongside her ICSS data.

Related material can be found in Series 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
