As CAFP members, you have the opportunity to write resolutions to be discussed at the CAFP's All-Member Advocacy Meeting (AMAM).

What is a resolution?
Resolutions are drafted by CAFP members like you and voted on by the CAFP Board of Directors. Resolutions that are approved become part of CAFP Policy, which in turn guides CAFP staff and the Board in the positions it takes on proposed legislation, regulations, initiatives, amicus briefs, and the specific work it undertakes, including educational efforts. In other words, the resolutions you write can guide the powerful work of the CAFP and make meaningful change for you and your patients.
