I am a KPHA member because...

"I am a KPHA member because…leading public health experts and professionals and people interested in public health from all walks of life come to KPDA to connect and collaborate. To support and share insights on how to improve health across the Commonwealth. To hear the latest science-based information and guidance on a variety of health topics. I’ve never attended a KPHA meeting or event during which I did not learn something useful and interesting. In fact, I also often leave feeling energized and inspired—commitment to our communities is keenly felt in KPHA. We are stronger together, and KPHA is a home for all voices. In KPHDA I’m not learning from AI—I’m learning from AY (All Y’all!)."

Don't forget the 2026 Annual Conference will be held March 17-19, 2026, at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center.

The Northern Kentucky Convention Center is in Covington, Kentucky along the banks of the Ohio River. It is situated at the heart of a rapidly expanding business and entertainment district just across a picturesque 19th Century suspension bridge from downtown Cincinnati.

This 204,000-total square foot multi-purpose facility has 110,000 sq. ft. of meeting, exhibition, and social function space. The center is designed to make it as convenient and efficient as possible for meeting, conference, and exhibition planners, and is directly connected to the Marriott at RiverCenter.

The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) is consistently ranked as one of the best airports in the world. Northern Kentucky is within a two-hour flight from 60 percent of the nation's population. Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky is also within only a two-hour drive of the Port Columbus International Airport (CMH), Dayton International Airport (DAY), Louisville International Airport (SDF) and Lexington's Blue Grass Airport (LEX). Northern Kentucky offers a blend of cosmopolitan sophistication and southern hospitality, and this is reflected in the staff's customer service focus. We will do our best to ensure a most successful event.
