2019 Health Journalism Event Support

This project supports the Association for Health Care Journalists’ annual conference, Health Journalism 2019 in Baltimore; the 2019 Rural Health Journalism workshop; and a 2019 fall niche workshop addressing a newsworthy health care topic. The Health Journalism conference will host approximately 700 attendees from around the country for dozens of panels, workshops, and field trips to help educate journalists on a variety of key health care topics. The Fund’s support will assist with speaker travel, lodging, AV requirements, marketing, and general conference costs associated with the arrangement of this large‐scale event. The Rural Health and niche Journalism workshops have in the past covered topics such as the business of health care, immigrant health, urban health, senior health, and health data.
