Annual Meeting

"Protect, Promote, Prevent: Think Globally, Act Locally"

Held at the Aqua Turf Club in Southington, CT, the 2009 CPHA Annual Meeting exceeded expectations for attendance, quality of speakers, and number of sponsors.  From our excellent keynote speakers to our award winners, the Annual meeting was both informative and entertaining.  A wide range of topics were covered including: health care reform and advocacy to more traditional public health topics such as infectious diseases and water safety.  The meeting also attracted a record number of poster presentations detailing research completed by students at each of Connecticut's public health programs.
