What's New and What To Look for at This Year's Conference?

Back by popular demand will be our official conference event app through “Whova”. We received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback from last year’s attendees who said the app enabled them to participate and interact more actively, have fun, and build two times more connections! You will be able to gain access to the new info on the “Whova” app a few weeks before the conference begins by searching the Apple store or Google Play on your mobile device.

The primary focus of our conference committee’s work is to assist the Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas communities to gain knowledge, sharpen their skills, and to enhance local advocacy efforts. Our 2020 theme, “Reclaiming Healthy Narratives in Indian Country”,  embodies the restorative spirit of courage, healing, and resiliency in our Native people. In our communities, our homes, and individually, we must take ownership over our own stories and write daring new endings!

Our goal for Tribal Public Health Conference 2020 is that you will leave with fresh & exciting ideas, new friends, more partnerships, and increased opportunities; most importantly, we want you to have fun!

Who Should Attend?
