Join public health professionals, healthcare leaders, policymakers, educators, researchers, students, and community advocates from across the state as we come together to explore the ideas, innovations, and collaborations shaping Nevada's future.

This year's theme, Advancing Public Health in Nevada: Practice, Policy, and Partnerships, recognizes that lasting improvements in health are achieved when evidence-based practice, informed policy, and strong community partnerships work together. Through engaging presentations, meaningful discussions, and shared learning, attendees will discover innovative approaches to addressing Nevada's most pressing health challenges, advancing health equity, and strengthening the systems that support healthy communities.

Together, we can turn knowledge into action, build stronger partnerships, and create a healthier Nevada for all.

NEW This Year: Optional Public Health Day Legislative Visit
