On November 19–20, 2026, the Nevada Rural Health Summit will take place in recognition of National Rural Health Day. National Rural Health Day celebrates the people and places that drive the Power of Rural forward. It is a day to honor rural healthcare providers, communities, organizations, State Offices of Rural Health, and the many partners dedicated to ensuring rural America continues to thrive.
This year’s summit marks an exciting expansion from a single-day program to a one-and-a-half-day event featuring presentations from public health experts across Nevada, student and professional poster sessions, exhibitor engagement, and dedicated networking time. Organizers anticipate 150–200 participants from across the state.
Healthcare professionals, students, researchers, organizations, and community partners are invited to participate as speakers, poster presenters, or exhibitors.
