Reflections from the 2025 AEHA Conference

By Jenni Dobson & Vinod Kamalam The Alaska Environmental Health Association (AEHA) gathered for our 2025 Alaska Environmental Health Conference on November 7-8, 2025 at the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium in Anchorage. After another year of navigating complex challenges in environmental health, this conference provided connection, learning, and inspiration alongside our professional community. This year's conference brought together environmental health professionals from across Alaska to share recent and ongoing environmental public health work....

by Jenni Dobson It feels like an understatement to say it has been a strange year for environmental health professionals—funding cuts, layoffs, political pressures, agency instability, and increasingly complex challenges. During such times, attending a conference can feel lower on the priority list, and many of those in attendance patched together a mix of non-agency funding. While I had not originally planned to attend the conference this year, it provided exactly what I needed: a chance to learn, recharge, and reflect, amongst a gathering of our environmental health colleagues from across the nation and globe....

April 23rd, 2025 Prevention is one of the basic tenets of public health. With respect to environmental health, we often think of prevention as avoiding or reducing exposure to harmful substances. But equally important is promoting a healthy lifestyle and diet. Effectively promoting a healthy diet and minimizing exposure to contaminants requires understanding relevant environmental health risks, building collaborations, and providing information to maximize health benefits....

The AEHA Membership & Benefits committee is thrilled to announce the launch of the Alaska Environmental Health Association (AEHA) Mentorship Program—a pilot initiative designed to connect early professionals, university students, and high school students with experienced environmental health professionals across Alaska.

👉 Check out our website for more details! https://aehablog.wordpress.com/mentorship-program/

👉 Register here to become a mentor or mentee. https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=2i4ZFJk4WkqeG9hsWnt1boA9Rg_JcnFFgEjf_MG2nohUN0RPUTQ4RVpZQjhJWjlYMFM1UjQ5NENHWS4u&route=shorturl

Both mentors and mentees must be active AEHA members. Student membership is just $20/year for university students and free for high schoolers—please share! You can become a member and pay annual dues here https://aehablog.wordpress.com/membership/

This pilot program will run from May through October, wrapping up right before our Annual Educational Conference (dates TBD).
