Description
The Established Advocacy Grant, offered by the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), is designed to provide financial assistance to state dermatology societies that already maintain advanced, robust advocacy programs. The goal is to augment and strengthen these existing efforts by supplying additional resources to support state-level legislative and health policy initiatives, including lobbying expenses. This grant is part of the AADA State Advocacy Grant Program, which aims to further the impact of dermatology societies in health policy and advocacy at the state level.
