What Campaign School graduates say

I would highly recommend campaign school to any health care professional considering a future in advocacy. I gained a better understanding of how a campaign works and more importantly, how it would impact my practice. Additionally, this knowledge has helped me better relate to my local representatives when advocating for our profession.
