  • Fort Worth, TX

In a world where trust in health care, science and the rule of law is being tested, this conference brings together professionals like you who are leading the response. Building systems that people can rely on requires innovation, collaboration and evidence-based solutions that connect health and justice. 

Join Texas’s and the nation’s brightest minds and visionary leaders in health, law, policy and beyond for an event to inspire and equip. Together, we’ll explore real-world insights, practical tools, and forward-looking strategies that not only strengthen medical-legal partnership (MLP), but also expand access to the legal and health services that are essential to opportunity for long, healthy lives.

Through interactive sessions, engaging panels, and meaningful networking opportunities, you’ll connect and engage with other practitioners, researchers, educators, policymakers and advocates working to integrate systems that ultimately improve community well-being.

We’ll concentrate on practical advancements, focusing on:

  • Data, Technology, and Evidence: Leveraging tools and rigorous methods to measure impact, standardize practices, and ensure responsible data use.
  • Policy, Sustainability, and Public Trust: Exploring the legal and financial frameworks needed to sustain and scale integrated care models, emphasizing long-term growth and ethical partnership.
  • Integrated Service Models and Community Impact: Highlighting innovative service delivery methods, community-driven approaches, and systemic impact beyond traditional settings.

The conference is hosted by the Texas A&M Health Institute for Healthcare Access, in collaboration with the National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership (NCMLP).
