National Forum 15th Annual Meeting “Paths to Engagement”

Friday, October 13, 2017 @ 8:00 am - 3:00 pm

  • American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2017 »

The National Forum Annual Meeting “is important because this is a group of thought leaders; people around the country who are really engaged in trying to prevent heart attack and stroke through their various organizations’ activities. And these are the key people who can activate and go back to where they work and practice, and make real progress and advances.”

-Jennifer G. Robinson, MD, MPH, FAHA

Paths to Engagement will examine the current state cardiovascular health in the U.S. and how we can successfully advocate for prevention and population health in the current environment.
