Annual Conference

Due to the ongoing federal government shutdown and its direct impact on travel, funding, and participation, we regret to announce that the Mississippi Public Health Association’s Annual Conference, originally scheduled for November 17-18 in Vicksburg, has been postponed to the Spring of 2026.

This was a difficult decision, but one made with the best interests of our members and partners in mind. We remain steadfast in our mission to advance public health in Mississippi and will share the rescheduled dates as soon as they are confirmed.

If you have registered for the conference, we will automatically move your registration to the spring conference. However, if you are unable to attend the event in the spring, we will promptly refund your registration fees. If you submitted an abstract for review, our team will contact you soon with details on next steps.

MPHA strives to strengthen public health in Mississippi through leadership, advocacy and education. This fall we will start a free webinar series. The first webinar will be at noon on October 22, 2025. Visit our new page for more information about all of the MPHA webinar offerings.

Thank you for your understanding, flexibility, and continued support of MPHA. We look forward to coming together this spring for an even stronger conference.
