“Public Health During Changing Times”

January 26-28, 2021 (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday)

Registration is Open

We are excited to bring you the first ever virtual Alaska Health Summit in 2021! With Keynote Speakers and dozens of Workshop Sessions that will engage us on the most critical issues affecting public health in Alaska today. You’ll come away inspired to deepen your own work and create new collaborative partnerships.
 
This year’s conference theme, “Public Health During Changing Times,” recognizes our rich multi-cultural tapestry of traditions and people with unique and valuable insights into the challenges they face today. Continuing its tradition as one of the largest gatherings of Alaska health professionals, the Summit provides educational and networking opportunities for everyone actively engaged in creating solutions, including: 
  • Health care providers
  • Public health practitioners
  • Policy makers
  • Educators
  • Community members
We are keeping our members and partners in mind with special discounted pricing during these critical times. If you’re not already an ALPHA member, please consider joining now to take advantage of the lowest conference rates. Members are invited to the online annual membership meeting on Jan. 28, 2021, to vote on member-submitted resolutions and talk with ALPHA’s leadership team. Come find out how you can be more involved!
