Why It Matters To You
Why Attend Nourishing Change Conference?
Community health advocates and non-profit leaders focused on driving better public health outcomes face a host of challenges from delivering scalable impact with healthcare and retail partners; aligning with health systems; measuring community outcomes; and community disparities in food, pharmacy and digital access.
You bring the voice of the communities. The future of health cannot be transformed without collaboration across communities, industries, advocacy organizations, healthcare providers, retailers, and policymakers.
That is why Nourishing Change Conference brings together more than business leaders. It convenes the organizations and voices helping shape equitable access, healthier communities, education, policy, prevention, and long-term systems change.
With thousands of motivated leaders from retail, science, government, health systems, health payers, health tech, and more, Nourishing Change Conference is the perfect venue to initiate and develop authentic collaborations that move from pilot to scale. The sessions, workshops, and networking at Nourishing Change present community and non-profit leaders with a unique storytelling opportunity – a platform to influence corporate and policy partners and launchpad for delivering collaborative impact.
