The following information was provided to ACA members through the weekly report from the ACA’s Executive Vice President.
“7. APHA ANNUAL MEETING IN WASHINGTON, D.C. TO HAVE STRONG CHIROPRACTIC PRESENCE
If you have an interest in the activities of the members of the American Public Health Association, you should mark your calendar for its annual meeting, Nov. 6-10, in Washington, D.C. The event brings together more leaders in public health and government than any other gathering.
The chiropractic profession will have a strong presence as usual. There will be four full sessions consisting of several public papers each dedicated to chiropractic topics:
· Chiropractic in the Changing Health Care Environment
· Issues in Chiropractic and Public Health Education
· Issues in Chiropractic Practice and Research
· Chiropractic Access, Outreach and Research
For further details, go to <www.APHA.org> for details on the program and chiropractic-related events.”
It is significant to receive this kind of coverage from one of our national associations, and we are grateful for the assistance of ACA’s leadership in getting our message out to the profession.
As noted above, the APHA's Annual Meeting will be held in Washington, D.C., Nov. 6 – 10, 2004. The schedule of events for the Chiropractic Health Care Section follows.
