Public Health Partners,

It is my pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all the attendees of the OEHA Southwest District 2024 Fall Conference. The conference will be held at the Sinclair Community College Ponitz Center, 301 W. Fourth Street, Dayton, Ohio 45402 on Wednesday, October 2^nd and Thursday, October 3^rd. At OEHA, our mission has always been to work on behalf of our members to safeguard Ohio’s health, and to pursue equitable environmental health regulations. We firmly believe in the power of collaboration, education, and innovation to create a healthier and more sustainable future for our communities. This conference serves as an invaluable platform for knowledge exchange and professional growth.

Our program this year has been thoughtfully designed to offer a diverse range of sessions and networking opportunities. Both days will provide Registered Environmental Health Specialists with up to 12 CEUs, pending Ohio Department of Health approval. I encourage you to make the most of this conference by actively participating in the sessions, asking questions, and exchanging ideas. The value of this experience lies not only in the knowledge gained, but also in the relationships formed and strengthened.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the dedicated members of the OEHA Southwest District Conference Planning Committee and our generous sponsors for their continued support. Please take some time to visit our sponsors and to take a look at the Picture This display and cast your vote for the best photo! Don’t forget to bring CASH for your chance to win one of our raffle items or to participate in the 50/50 drawing. All of the money raised will be donated to the George Eagle Memorial Scholarship fund. If you would like to donate an item to the raffle, please feel free to contact me at ssimmons@clermontcountyohio.gov.

It has been an honor to serve as the 2024 District Director. I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you for your passion, dedication, and unwavering commitment to environmental public health.
