After nearly two years of a global pandemic, combined with the fractures of deep political unrest and creeping economic uncertainty, how health is defined in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the Mid-Atlantic has taken on new meanings. While issues of physical health and well-being often take center stage, the last two years have also illustrated how definitions of economic health, community health, political health, and organizational health have altered in the face of rapidly shifting circumstances. Yet, these challenges have also brought forward stories of historical and contemporary resiliency, offering hope better to understand the past and its relationship to the future.
PHA membership is required to present at the 2022 annual meeting.
The conference will be held in person from October 13-15, 2022, at Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
For more information, please contact Dr. Andrew Simpson, Associate Professor of History, Duquesne University at simpson4@duq.edu.
