Making the Public's Health a National Priority
Washington, D.C. | November 2-5, 2025
Research has shown that public health efforts to prevent disease are more cost effective - and humane - than treating chronic health conditions, so now is the time to invest in our nation’s health. Health is a human right; let’s make it a national priority.
APHA is commited to providing a professional, safe, productie and welcoming meeting experience that enables all attendes to engage fully.
