Abstract/Description
In October 2025, more than 530 artists, public health professionals, civic leaders, community organizers and healthcare practitioners from around the globe came together at NJPAC in Newark, NJ, united by a shared belief in the power of arts and culture to build healthier, more equitable communities.
Through a post-convening survey, in-depth follow-up survey and two virtual focus groups, the team captured the impact of our time together.
The resulting report celebrates what CHC achieved and will help shape even stronger gatherings ahead
