Our Annual Conference and Members’ Meeting

We proudly sponsor an annual fall conference, maintaining our dedication to pure homeopathic principles through collaborations with affiliated state societies and medical organizations including the Homeopathic Nurses Association (HNA), the Academy of Veterinary Homeopaths (AVH), and the Homeopathic Academy of Naturopathic Medicine (HANP). Our vibrant conferences have recently taken place in Tempe, Arizona and Farmington, Connecticut. While we encourage in-person attendance for the fullest conference experience, we offer a hybrid format that allows virtual participation for those unable to travel.
