Addiction Medicine Action Network (AMAN) 2022 Training Series

2022 Training Series

As a health care professional who treats addiction, you understand the impact that federal and state legislation has on your practice and your patients. At ASAM, we are committed to elevating the voices of addiction medicine among key policymakers. ASAM's new grasstops program, the Addiction Medicine Action Network (AMAN), aims to leverage members’ advocacy relationships with lawmakers and expand members' advocacy skills.

This four-part series of trainings for AMAN members will cover introductory topics on addiction medicine advocacy. This series will be available live for AMAN members and as free on-demand recordings for everyone. 

Interested in joining the Network? Whether you have existing advocacy relationships with lawmakers or simply want to develop new ones, consider applying for the ASAM Addiction Medicine Action Network (AMAN). As a member of AMAN, you will have access to advanced advocacy trainings, individualized advocacy support, and your work may be amplified and recognized through various communication channels.
