The call for abstracts for the 2025 Preparedness Summit, to be held April 29-May 2, 2025, in San Antonio, Texas, is officially open! This year’s theme, Pathways to Recovery in the Aftermath of Disasters, provides an opportunity to ask questions and develop answers as we consider roles and responsibilities, and resources needed to undertake the crucial step of recovery.
The Summit Planning Committee invites public health, healthcare, disaster relief, emergency management, and other professionals nationwide to showcase and share their research findings, best practice training models, tools, or other resources that advance the field of public health and healthcare preparedness and response.
The abstract submission period is open through September 13, 2024 (11:59 PM PT). Deadline extensions are not guaranteed. The committee seeks sessions that:
- Are evidence-based;
- Highlight programs or model practices that have proven effective in building and sustaining public health and healthcare preparedness at the national, state, local, or tribal level; and
- Demonstrate tools and resources that are replicable and scalable at the national, state, local, or tribal level.
New this year, conference registration is also now open with a Summer Special rate through September.
