In the spirit of our mission to bring together people interested in public health, and provide a forum for the exchange of public health information, we would like to invite you to join us at our Annual Meeting. The NHPHA Annual Meeting is a gathering of public health, medical and business professionals from organizations around New Hampshire.
The event will begin with a networking social from 4:00pm - 5:30pm. During this time, light refreshments will be served. Attendees will have the opportunity to walk through the student poster gallery where 20+ students are presenting interesting findings from their research projects or practicums. Exhibits at the Discovery Center will also be open. Students interested in exhibiting, click here.
The main structure of our meeting will be from 5:30pm - 7:00pm where the Association will conduct annual business, present awards, and announce the election of new officers and Board of Directors.
Special Gathering for Students
Students are invited to join us one hour prior to the event from 3:00 - 4:00pm for a focused discussion with our Fossom Award winner, Helen Taft. Helen is the Executive Director for Families First Health & Support Center in Portsmouth. She will guide students in a discussion on public health in the state of New Hampshire while specifically addressing opportunities for moving student's careers forward. This is a valuable opportunity for students to network and share thoughts on how NHPHA can support them with their career development in New Hampshire.
