On September 10, 2025, Copa Health hosted its 12th Annual Emergency Preparedness Conference at SkySong in Scottsdale, bringing together over 200 professionals, providers, and experts in healthcare, emergency management, and nonprofit services. Attendees dove deep into critical topics—from lessons learned in wildfires to sheltering in place vs. evacuations, the impacts of AI, and nuclear safety preparedness. Panel discussions and hands-on insights helped equip participants with actionable knowledge and strategies to strengthen community readiness. Speakers included Dr. Shar Najafi-Piper (CEO, Copa Health), Norm Duve (Copa Health), Stan Szpytek (Fire Life & Safety), Richard Turner (Maricopa County Emergency Services Planner) and experts from the Arizona Hospital & Healthcare Association, Maricopa County Emergency Services, APS, Fellowship Square, and other key emergency response organizations. Thank you to every expert, partner, and attendee who joined us. Together, we’re strengthening our communities—especially those most vulnerable—by sharing expertise, best practices, and actionable strategies for real-world preparedness. #CopaHealth #EmergencyPreparedness #CommunitySafety #CollaborationInAction #VulnerablePopulations #HealthLeadership #Scottsdale
