The West Virginia Rural Health Conference is held each year in October. The purpose of this annual conference is to offer education, information, and networking opportunities to health care providers, policymakers, communities, and students of health professions. In pursuit of overall health of West Virginians, the conference includes interesting forums, special event meetings, and breakout sessions. Each year the conference focuses on rural health care issues, cutting edge initiatives, and creative methods to assist in solving current challenges.

With the support of the various organizations across the state, this conference gathers many of the professionals in rural health for two and a half days. The conference is coordinated by the CAMC Health Education and Research Institute, which facilitates continuing education units. Other partners include the WV Rural Health Association, The Center for Rural Health Development, WV Rural Health Education Partnership, WV Higher Education Policy Commission, WVU Robert C. Byrd Health Sciences Center, Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine, WV School of Osteopathic Medicine and the University of Charleston School of Pharmacy. Scholarships for conference registration and lodging are available to qualifying health professions students and community volunteers who are not employed in the health field.

Each year the planning committee collaborates to invite dynamic speakers who will present exciting topics to conference participants.
