Advocacy Training For Post Docs / Residents

The SID debuted the Advocacy Training Program for Residents in conjunction with Skin Disease Research Day (SDRD) activities on April 5-6, 2005. Residents who demonstrate an interest in advocacy are chosen to attend the program, which teaches strategies and skills for positively influencing public policy. Through role-playing sessions and other means, residents prepare for the following day’s meetings with members of congress and their staffs.
