Tear Down the Health Care Silos
A few weeks ago, I was with a group of my colleagues in Washington, D.C., representing the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and seeking support for a bill to fund the U.S. Physical Activity Guidelines. For the last 2 years, ACSM has partnered with the Sport and Fitness Industry Association on Capitol Hill Day, as our opportunity to meet with U.S. Representatives and Senators to both educate them and to seek their support for funding that helps promote a physically-active lifestyle.
