The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) will hold
NACCHO 360 virtually on July 7-9, 2020. NACCHO 360 connects the traditional NACCHO Annual conference with PHIITS: Public Health Informatics, Information Technology, and Surveillance, a reimagined Public Health Informatics Conference. The theme for the conference, “Raising the Reach of Public Health,” will focus on breaking down silos to empower cross-pollination that moves the field forward. The conference will bring together local health department staff, partners, and funders to share the latest research, ideas, strategies, and innovations across public health focus areas.
