Save-the-date: Tuesday, March 25, and Wednesday March 26, 2025, at the Marriott Country Club Plaza in Kansas City, Missouri. We’re expanding our summit program to two full days as we continue to advance the health needs of all communities using a syndemic framework.

Hosted by the Collaborative Center to Advance Health Services at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Nursing and Health Studies, the Syndemic Solutions Summit creates a neutral space for government, the workforce, and people with lived and living experience to learn, listen, and collaboratively chart a path forward.

The inaugural Syndemic Solutions Summit took place on July 26-27, 2023. This was the first known national health summit focused on discussing and generating syndemic solutions to end the intertwined health conditions of five epidemics: HIV, STIs, Viral Hepatitis, Problematic Substance Use, Mental Health Conditions, and Pregnancy-Related Mortality.
