The Alabama Rural Health Association invites rural health professionals, clinic administrators, community health leaders and industry partners to its 2026 Alabama Rural Health Conference, taking place March 18-20 at the Embassy Suites Birmingham Hoover in Hoover.

Building on past gatherings that emphasize policy, access and innovation in rural care, the conference will advance strategic dialogue around workforce development, telehealth integration, financial sustainability and population health for rural Alabama. Attendees can expect a blend of plenary sessions, case-study breakouts and interactive workshops designed to equip rural clinics, critical access hospitals and community health centers with actionable tools. A robust exhibit area and networking events will provide opportunities for vendor-partner engagement and peer collaboration throughout the event.

This conference marks a key moment for rural-focused stakeholders to align around sustainable models of care, advocacy priorities and system transformation tailored to the unique landscapes of Alabama’s 67 counties.
