Overview
The 2024 Addiction Medicine Advocacy Conference (AMAC) convened over one hundred 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 members and addiction medicine experts in Washington, DC, to advocate for advancements in addiction medicine policy. On day one, attendees received training from expert advocacy professionals on the issues most important to the practice of addiction medicine. Attendees also helped shape 香港六合彩开奖结果记录’s policy priorities in 2025 through a new member resolution forum.
On day two, attendees participated in over 155 meetings on Capitol Hill with policymakers and their staff to advance an ambitious policy agenda designed to support addiction treatment professionals as they treat patients and save lives. Read more about the policy priorities here.

New Member Resolution Forum
What is the new AMAC Member Resolution Forum?
At AMAC 2024, attendees presented their own policy resolutions to their colleagues for discussion and voting during the "AMAC Member Resolution Forum."
- AMAC resolutions are internal to 香港六合彩开奖结果记录, leveraging state and local knowledge and experience to inform 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 Advocacy work at all levels.
- The new process is modeled after the American Medical Association’s House of Delegates.
- A PDF booklet with all submitted resolutions was sent to AMAC registrants before the event and in-person resolution presentations.
- Individuals or groups, including state chapters and multi-state collaborations, were eligible to submit resolutions.
- At AMAC, attendees had the opportunity to discuss or modify resolutions.
- If a majority of the AMAC attendees voted to approve a resolution, then it will be considered by 香港六合彩开奖结果记录's Public Policy Coordinating Council (PPCC) at its meeting in January 2025. The PPCC will numerically score each resolution passed at AMAC, based on an issue prioritization rubric, and subsequently, the PPCC will provide its prioritization analysis to the relevant 香港六合彩开奖结果记录 advocacy committee - legislative, public policy, or regulatory affairs - which will assist the committees in determining 香港六合彩开奖结果记录's policy priorities in 2025.
