May 5-7, 2012

What is the DC FLI?
This three-day leadership training in Washington, D.C., which culminates in a lobby day on Capitol Hill, will hone your leadership skills, increase your lobbying effectiveness, and give you the opportunity to advocate for the changing face of health care. This is your time to shine!

Just a few short years ago, Capitol Hill held little knowledge of what a naturopathic doctor does. Now more than 600 congressional staff and Members join us at our Hill reception and we meet with more than 200 congressional offices.

At this year's DC FLI, we have an important obligation and a unique opportunity to educate many new Members of Congress on just what naturopathic medicine is, and what naturopathic physicians can do to improve our nation's health! The more they hear our message, the healthier the Congress and its work product!
