Hope & Health Conference

April 5, 2025

Join us from 9 a.m. — 3 p.m. at Gordon College in Wenham, Massachusetts

New England’s Annual Christian Public Health Conference

What does it look like to bring hope and health to our communities? Whether our passions take us to our local neighborhood, Boston or around the world, we have much to learn from each other. The schedule is packed with guest speakers and workshops with time to network over lunch. All are welcome as we fellowship with those who are striving to bring hope and health to their communities.

“[It's] really encouraging to see the intersection of faith with public health and the practical ways that organizations are being the hands and feet of Jesus in New England.”
