2017 National Conference for Immunization Coalition and Partnerships

The National Conference on Immunization Coalitions and Partnerships (NCICP), formerly the National Conference on Immunization and Health Coalitions, is a gathering of coalition leaders, staff and board members; public health workers and experts; and community advocates. The conference has traditionally occurred every two years and is the product of a national volunteer planning committee. In 2017, a one-day version of this meeting took place as part of the Nevada Health Conference in Henderson, Nevada.
