Whether we\u2019re relaying the epic histories of our familial ancestors or telling the story of our health workflows and impacts, stories make the recounting vastly more interesting. Furthermore, visual storytelling holds tremendous power to make data more digestible and understandable. As it turns out, map-based visualization and analysis build on that power because the spatial memory section of our brains is uniquely strong. I\u2019ve recently been touring many ancient cities across Europe, and I\u2019ve seen firsthand the evidence for how visual storytelling offered a way to ensure that information delivery was more inclusive.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">All this to say, we\u2019re inviting you to save the date for our 21<sup>st<\/sup> Annual Esri Health and Human Services GIS Conference. The event will be held May 2-3, 2023, at the beautiful Chicago Hilton. You can review our 2022 event and request notifications when registration opens <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/about\/events\/health-human-services-conference\/save-date\">here<\/a>. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\"><strong>What should you expect?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Lots of success stories! I believe the presentations we have planned for you will leave you inspired, empathetic and energized. We\u2019ll be covering the following thematic areas at the conference with a mix of user stories and technical workshops:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Humans in crisis<\/li><li>Health equity<\/li><li>Preparedness and response<\/li><li>Access to care and network adequacy<\/li><li>Strategic planning<\/li><li>Environmental health and climate<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">We\u2019ll also have Esri experts on hand to help with your specific needs (so come with questions and ideas!). Our professional services division will host \u2018doctor\u2019s hours\u2019 on both days where you can meet with them individually to share your data, your challenges, or get ideas for how to proceed with your projects.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\"><strong>Who should attend?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">If you know me, you know I\u2019ll say \u2018everyone in health\u2019 should attend this event. Why do I say that? Well, location is ubiquitous in our lives, and it touches every aspect of the health industry including hospitals and health systems, health plans, public health, human and social services, nonprofit organizations, pharmaceutical companies, trade associations and more. We also see a variety of roles from within these organizations from the chief executives and information officers to the epidemiologists, data scientists, program analysts, and health educator. It\u2019s literally applicable to everyone.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\"><strong>One more reason\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">It\u2019s no secret that we learn best in a collaborative environment where we can compare our stories and approaches. This event provides an opportunity for you to learn firsthand how over 400 other health professionals are responding to common trends, goals, and challenges. Because this event draws a geographically and professionally diverse audience, attendees can share and gather ideas outside their typical local spheres of influence. And don\u2019t you just feel the need to be among colleagues even more these days?<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">I will most certainly be there and look forward to connecting with old friends and making new ones as we take #HealthGIS to the next level. As the date approaches please keep an eye out for more blogs from myself and colleague Nanette Star, environmental health industry specialist, with specifics on sessions, presenters, and their story topics. You won\u2019t want to miss it. Put the dates on your calendar now!<\/p>","protected":false},"author":892,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[141],"tags":[2942,3492,2472,3102,3502],"class_list":["post-430872","blog","type-blog","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-health","tag-access-to-care","tag-environmental-health","tag-homelessness","tag-opioids","tag-public-health-preparedness","industry-health-and-human-services"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>You\u2019re Invited - Immerse Yourself in Our Unique Storytelling Conference<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Esri&#039;s health and human services GIS conference applies location intelligence to health organizations workflows so they can effectively advance health equity, address the opioid epidemic, and build healthy communities.
