See you at
the Autumn Convention! AMOA Reception Friday, November 16 4-6 pm Reserve Wine Bar Directly across from the Amway Grand Plaza
he Advocates for the Michigan Osteopathic Association (AMOA) is proud to introduce a strong and passionate board serving our organization in 2018-2019. The AMOA also includes a very active and enthusiastic Student Advocate Association at MSUCOM, increased interest from Intern Resident Advocate Association groups at Henry Ford Wyandotte and Henry Ford Allegiance, and representatives from McLaren Oakland, McLaren Macomb and McLaren Greater Lansing. All of these organizations help to promote the osteopathic profession, and include families of medical students and residents. We have a busy year planned! Our theme this year is “Alone we can do so little, and together we can do so much” Part of what we do is raise funds for residents, medical students and spouses. Our seasonal fundraiser will be our annual “Tree of Peace” offering stained glass ornaments for the holidays. With your generous support we can make a difference for our Michigan Osteopathic family.
We hope to build on last year’s work engaging with MSUCOM, MOA, AAOA and various Intern/Resident Groups. The AMOA board is also investigating ways to collaborate with our wonderful MOA board, as well as promote new initiatives such as the “Yellow Ribbon” and physician wellness in Michigan. Our distracted driving awareness program is one we are very proud of, and it continues to be a focus of our organization. The simulator has been taken to a number of health fairs, high schools and even our state capital, and is always well received and requested back. With all that being said, we hope you will join us on November 16, 2018, from 4-6pm, for our social event at the MOA Autumn Convention at the Reserve Wine Bar. We will be providing hors d’oeuvres and great conversation. We look forward to another successful year of osteopathic advocacy together!
