NACCHO 2023 Preparedness Summit. Atlanta.

 

2023 Preparedness Summit: Register Today!

Registration for the 2023 Preparedness Summit, to be held April 24–27, 2023 in Atlanta, is officially open! Early-bird registration is available through January 31, 2023, and there are a range of registration types available—including virtual—to meet your specific needs.

Why Attend?
Attendees described last year’s Preparedness Summit as an amazing experience that provided great insights and tools for participants to take back to their communities. It also provided a valuable space for attendees to share together and make connections. This year, you can expect no less.

As we recover from the prolonged pandemic response and begin to define the endemic phase of COVID-19, natural disasters, emerging infectious diseases, terrorist threats, climate issues, and maintenance of all-hazards plans can now be reexamined. The theme for the 2023 Preparedness Summit is Recover. Renew: Reprioritizing All-Hazards Preparedness, and it will provide an opportunity to revisit pressing issues in preparedness and share resources, shape policies, and build skills to mitigate a variety of threats.

Don’t Miss the 2023 Preparedness Summit
As the first and longest-running national preparedness conference, the Preparedness Summit is the place for you to reenergize while gaining the knowledge, resources, and relationships necessary to prepare for and respond to public health emergencies. Don't miss your chance to join more than 2,000 attendees—who work in all levels of federal, state, and local government, as well as emergency management, volunteer organizations, healthcare coalitions, and academia—to share best practices, build partnerships, advance your skillset, and take away innovative solutions and practical strategies to address the vulnerabilities in our country’s health security system.
