CEO Mark Marsh Speaks at Statewide Housing Conference

Owensboro Health President and CEO Mark Marsh joined leaders from across Kentucky today in Covington at the 2025 Kentucky Affordable Housing Conference, hosted by the Kentucky Housing Corporation.
Marsh was a featured panelist in the session “Local Collaborations to Accelerate Housing Supply – Part 1,” where he discussed how Owensboro Health is working with local partners to address housing challenges and expand access to stable, affordable living.
The panel highlighted a community-driven model involving the City of Owensboro, Habitat for Humanity and Owensboro Health, offering practical solutions that can be replicated statewide.
Owensboro Health is proud to support initiatives that target the core factors contributing to poor health, including housing insecurity. The system remains committed to community partnerships that improve long-term well-being across the region.
