Join NACCHO’s Medical Supply Chain Listening Sessions

Jun 22, 2026 | Shannon Duffy

NACCHO is convening multiple virtual Medical Supply Chain Disruption Listening Sessions this July. If you’re involved in preparedness or medical supply acquisition, your voice can help inform national strategies and strengthen response efforts across all levels of public health. These sessions are designed to gather insights from local public health professionals on supply acquisition and the challenges jurisdictions face during disruptions.

Sessions will be held July 9, 23, and 30, 3:30–5:00 PM ET. Click here to register by July 1.

Building on findings from the 2024 Preparedness Profile Survey, NACCHO is seeking to better understand current capacities and identify opportunities to improve coordination and response across all levels of government. In the Preparedness Profile, only 8% of LHDs reported being very prepared for a medical supply chain disruption.  

NACCHO encourages participation from:

  • Local public health preparedness staff
  • Public Health Clinicians
  • Local Public Health department leadership
  • Local Public Health Professionals involved in acquiring or managing medical supplies

Register Today

Interested participants are encouraged to complete the registration form by July 1.  

Why Your Participation Matters

Your input will help inform NACCHO’s work with the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) and contribute to strengthening medical supply chain resilience nationwide. All discussions will be de-identified to encourage open and honest feedback.
