8th Annual Live Healthy SC Conference
From Vision to Action: Shaping the Future of Health in SC
November 7, 2025 • Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center
Together we are Live Healthy
The 8th Annual Live Healthy SC Conference is where South Carolina’s health leaders, advocates, and community partners come together to drive meaningful change.
This year’s conference marks a historic moment as the South Carolina Department of Public Health, in collaboration with the Alliance and partners from across the state, launches the new State Health Improvement Plan (SHIP). Built through collaboration and guided by the Live Healthy SC priorities, the SHIP provides a clear roadmap for advancing health, strengthening partnerships, and achieving measurable improvements in health outcomes.
Through inspiring sessions, shared best practices, and intentional networking, the Live Healthy SC Conference creates space for collaboration that builds trust and aligns resources. Together, we can amplify what works, tackle what’s next, and move South Carolina toward a healthier future.
