Where Montana’s public health professionals connect, collaborate, and support each other.
Engagement and Mentorship Programs
Connected Community
Engage with the Montana Public Health Community: Connected Community is where Montana’s public health professionals come together. Join groups tailored to your role or interests, access useful resources, and stay up to date on what’s happening across the state. Join statewide peers online, share ideas, find resources, and stay in the loop.
AMPHO Small County Call
Confluence and The Association of Montana Public Health Officials invite you join the Small County Call. These calls provide a space for Public Health Directors in Montana’s smaller and rural counties to connect with statewide partners, share real-time challenges and solutions, and stay informed on important public health updates. Calls typically include funding and policy updates, workforce resources, and opportunities to elevate local needs to statewide and national partners.
First Tuesday of the month: Public Health Partner Updates.
Third Tuesday of the month: Peer-to-Peer call.
Public Health Nurse Section
The Montana Public Health Association Public Health Nurse Section brings together nurses from across Montana to strengthen recruitment, retention, and professional growth in public health nursing. We offer a supportive space for new and seasoned PHNs to share knowledge, ask questions, and build confidence in navigating the unique role of nursing in public health. Together, we’re advancing workforce sustainability and advocating for the policies that impact our profession and the communities we serve. We would love for you to join us!
Mentorship programs connect emerging leaders with experienced professionals across multiple disciplines.
