Heart of Health Policy | As part of ACC’s commitment to leadership development, the College has launched the Emerging Advocates Program. This program is a unique opportunity for ACC members, particularly Fellows in Training, Early Career Professionals and Cardiovascular Team members, to increase their knowledge of, and participation in, the College’s legislative, regulatory, state government relations, payer advocacy and value solutions, and population health efforts. During the two-year program, the Emerging Advocates will learn directly from the College’s advocacy leaders and identify opportunities where they can advance ACC’s advocacy activities. The ACC welcomes the following members as the first class of Emerging Advocates:
