What's going on and who's lobbying for what? PDF Print E-mail

Both naturopathic and Chinese medicine remain unknown to the general population of the United States.  There are copious opportunities for our professions to grow and an enormous need.  We seek to empower our patients with the knowledge of not only how to prevent illness, but also how to live well.  To accomplish this, we have to educate law makers.

It's hard to keep track of what is going on in legislation.  Life is busy and all of a sudden you hear people celebrating about another state granting recognition of naturopathic physicians.  This page will serve as a short and sweet summary of what is going on, how you can help and where you can go for resources if you have special interest in that state or law.

Type in your zip code at the AANP to see what you can do to help naturopathic medicine!  Check what's on the horizon for your state by clicking here.
