The AOA State Government Relations Committee (SGRC) will host three advocacy meetings to collaborate with and work to maximize affiliates' advocacy strategies with firsthand input from seasoned veterans.
With all new content and conversations planned, the 2024 AOA SGRC Regional Advocacy Meetings will build on the foundational elements of 2023 meetings and dive deeper into specific tactics used by optometry advocates to navigate the legislative landscape successfully. Hear from those advocates who have found success with several issues affecting our profession.
Panelists will share what roadblocks they experienced and strategies to navigate those obstacles. The pertinent issues up for discussion at these meetings include the emergence of physician "title" bills and other offensive plays utilized by opponents to derail optometry's advancements.
These highly interactive meetings are intended to directly connect affiliate advocates in a collaborative forum environment for an open dialogue with peers and colleagues. State advocacy teams are encouraged to join one of three AOA SGRC Regional Advocacy Meetings; participants are encouraged to register for any of the three regional meetings.
Western region states include Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.
