Advocates for Health in Action and Community Care of Wake and Johnston Counties were selected by the National Initiative for Children’s Healthcare Quality (NICHQ), to train health care providers to become advocates and change agents within their community to help reverse the trend of childhood obesity.
Your time outside the office is limited, and we respect that. This project requires a modest commitment but yields meaningful results. You can expect to leave the training as an activated advocate in your community. We are looking for passionate, interested and engaged professionals including physicians, nurses, dieticians, physical therapists, dentists, pharmacists, board certified athletic trainers, and exercise physiologists to:
