Intern Advocacy Days!

Each intern will have the opportunity to participate in an Intern Advocacy Day to get exposure to the world of physician advocacy. 

Since 2016, these special days have been held at the Capital Area Food Bank. Residents will spend the morning volunteering and learning about the food bank and the afternoon in a poverty simulation centered around food insecurity and hunger. Upper level residents, faculty members, and other staff join as well, contributing to a rich discussion and hopefully giving you some insight into how advocacy can be a real part of your career. We know that you all advocate for your patients every single day, and this dedicated time will help you take it to the next level.  

Please check Amion for your assigned Intern Advocacy Date. You will be contacted by your Chief Resident with more details closer to your session!
