Minority Health Conference 2024

We are excited to announce this year’s theme and date for the Minority Health Conference.

The Minority Health Conference will take place Thursday, April 4, in Student Center West, from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. This year’s theme is “Holistic Health: Moving Beyond Medicinal Care and Healing the Whole Self.”

Holistic Health encompasses focusing on a patient beyond the medicinal aspect and taking into account a person’s physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual health. We aim to bring attention to all components of an individual and learn about how our current health care system integrates the overall wellness of an individual with medicine. We hope to bring about new and engaging conversations around this topic in the public health field as it shifts to a more preventative care focus.
