The People's Public Health Conference provides a platform to democratize public health discussions and provide space for community-based and equity-focused action.

The conference features community and public health leaders from around the  US and internationally sharing their public health message and actionable steps for anyone to make.

Join us as we build community action for public health in the conference led by communities, to transform communities and to transform public health.

  Join us as we make sure that public health is actionable and social equity and justice-minded.

The Conference was created in 2022, in response to other public health conferences that have met in-person only during a pandemic, require costly admissions, and have lacked focus on community voices. We felt called to do something about this, and started The People's Public Health Conference.
