In 2020, NCIOM led the Healthy North Carolina 2030 project, which brought together experts and leaders from multiple fields to inform the development of a common set of public health indicators and targets for the state over the next decade. This year’s meeting will focus on a mid-decade update on the status of the work to achieve the goals of Healthy North Carolina 2030. Attendees will learn from and connect with health leaders, policymakers, and community partners from across the state as they:

• Reflect on progress,
• Share innovative strategies,
• Identify persistent challenges, and
• Chart a course toward improved health outcomes for all North Carolinians.

The keynote speaker will be Dr. Umair A. Shah. Dr. Shah is the former WA state health director and former Harris County, TX health director. Under Dr. Shah’s leadership, Harris County Public Health Department was named Local Health Department of the Year by NACCHO in 2016.
