Kentucky Rural Health Association Annual Conference 2026

The conference takes place at Knicely Center in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

The organizer lists rural health professionals and leaders, healthcare leaders, educators, students, partners, and advocates as audience groups.

It is most useful for rural health professionals, hospital and clinic leaders and community partners in Kentucky, since the two-day program draws people from across the state and lists about eighteen speakers. A student track is planned, so educators and students get a point of entry; people working outside Kentucky or outside rural care would find the focus too local, and the agenda is still a draft.

Attendees at state health association conferences usually wear business casual, with slacks and a collared shirt or blouse, and some clinicians in scrubs or professional dress. Bowling Green in late November is cool, so a jacket is useful.
