Each year, doctors, students, and residents visit the Utah State Capitol to advocate for family medicine. This year just happened to fall on Valentine’s Day so we spread the love by learning how to advocate, hearing from elected officials—including one of our own members, Dr. Ray Ward, and meeting with legislators to discuss important issues and concerns, lobbying on behalf of family medicine and the patients we serve. This is an invaluable opportunity to meet with legislators on their own turf and gives both members and elected officials a unique one-on-one to help better understand our positions on a variety of bills.

Join us this year for the 2020 Family Medicine Advocacy Day on the Hill Thursday, February 13th. Learn more and register online here: https://utahafp.org/events/family-medicine-advocacy-day-on-the-hill/
