Locations: Chicago, IL and Virtually
Registration opening soon!


The Maternal Health and Learning Innovation Center (MHLIC) is proud to host the 3rd annual National Maternal Health Innovation Symposium on August 1-3, 2022. This will be a free event with in-person and virtual attendance options.

Our focus this year is advancing equity through engagement, innovation, and policy.

By attending, you will:

  • Deepen understanding of current issues in maternal health
  • Learn about innovative initiatives to improve maternal health, particularly for Black and Indigenous birthing people, and people living in rural areas, and
  • Obtain skills and information needed to create change in communities.

Our goal is that the Symposium will grow to become a trusted, evidence-driven, and community-centered space for maternal health professionals and others invested in the well-being of families to connect, recharge, and to advance maternal health equity in the communities in which they live and work.

Registration Information Coming Soon!

We understand that many attendees will need to secure approval from their organizations prior to traveling. Please select the option that reflects your intent, whether or not you have received official approval.

Deadlines:

Attending In-person

Venue

The in-person components of the Symposium will take place at the Swissotel Chicago.

There is a room block for the National Maternal Health Innovation Symposium. Make your reservations here.

COVID-19 Precautions

MHLIC, the host of the Symposium, will work with the Chicago Swissotel and local public health officials to ensure the safety of all attendees, speakers, and hotel staff. As new developments arise over the coming months, the approach will continue to adapt and we will keep in-person attendees informed about COVID protocols in place at the time of the Symposium.  By registering to attend as an in-person attendee, you are consenting you will comply with any protocols that are made by MHLIC, the hotel, and/or local health officials. Requirements for onsite attendance will be communicated before the start of the conference.
