Early-bird registration for the 2026 Preparedness Summit—to be held April 13-16, 2026, in Baltimore, MD and virtually—is open through December 31. New this year, registration options are available for in-person or virtual attendance.
As the first and longest-running national preparedness conference, the Preparedness Summit is the place for you to reenergize while gaining the knowledge, resources, and relationships necessary to prepare for and respond to public health emergencies.
The theme of the 2026 Preparedness Summit, “Protecting Our Communities: State and Local Preparedness in Action,” spotlights the need for increased self-reliance on state and local partnerships amid a changing federal policy and budget landscape. This conference will be the beginning of an ongoing national conversation focusing on the evolution of the public health preparedness system.
