Helping in our own way through advocacy
You don't need to travel to Capitol Hill to be an advocate. Physician advocacy takes many forms鈥攚hether it's pushing for healthier food in the hospital cafeteria, openly discussing mental health challenges, or tweeting about an issue that matters to you. ACP Well-being Champions have the power to enact real systems-level change locally and globally.
