The 8th annual Connected Health Conference (formerly the mHealth Summit), provides the global platform for leadership, innovation and opportunity to achieve our new and ambitious vision of personal connected health for all. Hosted by the Personal Connected Health Alliance (PCHA), the Connected Health Conference was renamed in 2015 to reflect an increasingly consumer-centered, technology-enabled and collaborative approach to improving health, and builds on the success of the mHealth Summit.

The U.S. Conference of Mayors (USCM) will release its annual Hunger and Homelessness Report, featuring results from 39 cities from across the country.

The report includes results from a broad array of America’s major urban centers and underscores the fact that despite the economic recovery, the majority of study cities in 2016 had rates of homelessness higher than the national rate of homelessness. Survey results also show a small increase in requests for emergency food assistance in the participating cities.
