Join professionals in emergency management, healthcare coalitions, volunteer organizations and all levels of government (federal, state and local) to share best practices, build partnerships and engage with the latest technology and industry thought leaders. Discover how "Strengthening Coalitions Lies Deep in the Heart of Collaboration." By learning from the local-level triumphs and challenges of America's healthcare coalition, we can adapt these successes into long-term, dynamic solutions that will benefit fellow coalitions across the country. Although our coalitions are each unique and diverse, as a whole, we share the same ultimate purpose: to improve the health and safety of the communities we serve. Professionals in the emergency management, healthcare coalitions, volunteer organizations and all levels of government (federal, state and local) will benefit from advancing their individual and collective skill sets by participating in over 50 sessions across 4 Conference Tracks, sharing best practices, building partnerships and interacting with the latest technology and industry thought leaders in the Exhibit Hall.
