Kicking Off AMCHP 2025 with a YOUTH DAY!
AMCHP will soon host its 2025 AMCHP Annual Conference, and to kick things off, the first day of our conference will be a day BY youth, FOR youth! Join us on Saturday, March 15, from 10:30 AM ET to 5:00 PM ET, where we will center authentic youth engagement, uplift youth-adult partnerships, and discuss topics that impact youth, family, and community health. Youth are invited to join us for FREE on this first day.
This youth day will include an interactive and fun opening ceremony that cultivates connections, free lunch, professional networking opportunities, skills-building sessions, art activities, and a youth-led town hall where young people can lead meaningful discussions and uplift their perspectives. Topics will cover youth mental health, intergenerational approaches to maternal child health, combatting stigma through storytelling, workforce development, and more! This is an incredible opportunity, and it is free for youth attending the AMCHP Conference and for local youth to attend on this first day!

Support Youth and Young Adults, Family Leaders, Community-Based and Rooted Partners, Indigenous People, Indigenous-Led Organizations, and Representatives of Tribal Governments and Entities to Attend AMCHP 2025
Our annual conference is fast approaching. While we can’t wait to see you at AMCHP 2025, we also recognize the profound value of having youth and young adult leaders, including students, family leaders, community-based organizations and community-rooted partners, Indigenous people and Indigenous-led organizations, and tribal governments, to attend our conference.
AMCHP has composed a letter from our President and CEO providing further details about ways to support these individuals’ attendance. We’ve shared a similar letter for the past several years, which has inspired jurisdictions to financially support up to 10 youth and young adult leaders (including students), family leaders, CBOs, community-rooted partners, and tribal government representatives to participate each year. Nearly a quarter of those who received the letter indicated that it helped them build or strengthen relationships with the individuals they sponsored to attend the conference.
We are hopeful that this letter will have the same or an even more significant impact this year. We also hope that it inspires you and your colleagues to discuss ways to further partner with purpose and support these individuals and groups in your own work.
Check out our conference registration page for more information.

Recent Announcements
The AMCHP 2025 Theme: Partnering for Impact
In 2024, AMCHP’s theme of Partnering with Purpose highlighted how essential meaningful and purposeful partnerships are for achieving our goals in maternal and child health (MCH). The theme of partnership resonated deeply and widely with our participants, leading us to revisit it in 2025 with the theme Partnering for Impact. This theme captures our collective commitment to making our world better – where people have equitable access, equitable outcomes, and the opportunity to thrive. This theme takes us a step further in our purposeful partnerships towards the “why” of partnership—we partner to make things happen.
Partnering for Impact places results in the spotlight. Our collective work together matters because of what we hope to accomplish together. We model partnering intentionally to change the status quo, disrupt harmful narratives, and close the gaps in MCH outcomes. We partner not just because it looks good on paper or because it feels good to work with like-minded people but because we want to impact our communities for the better. We are difference-makers. We are change-makers. We are partnering for impact.
AMCHP’s goal is to have at least 50% of accepted proposal submissions directly address the conference theme. Visit our conference page to explore our AMCHP 2025 learning objectives.
Exhibit & Sponsorship Opportunities
Do you know of an entity looking for an opportunity to enhance the recognition of its products or services and make a lasting impression in the MCH field?
The 2025 AMCHP Annual Conference is offering exhibit and sponsorship opportunities to get their products and services directly in front of the country’s highest leaders caring for the needs of women, children, youth, and families. In 2024, over 1,300 MCH leaders and thinkers from nearly every state, territory, and jurisdiction in the United States joined our conference, surpassing all previous records. We expect this year’s in-person-only conference will be another strong showing!
