2008 AACU State Society Network Advocacy Conference


Mark your calendars!

Plan to attend the first AACU State Society Network Advocacy Conference on September 12-14 at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois.

Join your colleagues and learn about trends in legislation across the country in a fully interactive discussion. The primary objectives of this meeting are to support the growing network of urologists engaged in advocacy activities, to facilitate an exchange of information among urology's advocates on the state level, and to prepare for the coming state legislative sessions.

At this first-of-its-kind event, you will hear panel discussions led by expert presenters, and participate in breakout sessions and an open forum that will allow you to discuss how other urologists in your region and across the country have addressed advocacy challenges and achieved important victories. Share your experiences and strategies, and have your questions answered about new issues confronting urology.

Topics for the conference include:

  • Fighting state restrictions on urology
  • Advocacy training
  • Political involvement at the state level
  • Third party payor advocacy and state societies
  • Organizing for legislative action
  • Federal legislative trends and their state impact
  • And more!

The participation of advocates for urology like you is essential to this meeting, so we urge you to take part. Registration is free!
