NACCHO members say that one of the greatest benefits of membership is the informal networking that NACCHO Annual provides. Make the most of the networking opportunities by attending the following events:

  • First-time attendees and new members are invited to a special networking breakfast. Come and meet fellow members, learn more about the benefits your NACCHO membership, and foster new relationships.
  • Kick off the conference by joining your colleagues at the President's Welcome Reception. View products and services offered by nearly 100 exhibitors in a festive and welcoming atmosphere. 
  • The Grand Awards Ceremony & Reception is a great time to meet, mingle, and celebrate this year's Model and Promising Practices winners, the Local Health Departments of the Year, and the 2017 Mo Mullet awardee.

10 Reasons to attend NACCHO Annual 2017

Become a Member: There is Value in Belonging

"The NACCHO Annual Conference provides an effective balance between accessible size and focus of content that is specific to the governmental public health practitioner. As a health commissioner of a smaller health department, I must realize a return on my investment of very limited resources. The exposure to innovative ideas and practical skill sets are among the returns I find with NACCHO." –Tom Quade, Health Commissioner, Marion (OH) Public Health Department
