The Ohio Academy of Family Physicians is seeking physicians to serve as delegates to the American Academy of Family Physicians National Conference of Constituency Leaders (NCCL).
NCCL will be held Thursday-Saturday, April 26-28, 2018, in Kansas City, MO.

During NCCL you will meet similar family physicians from across the United States, discuss and develop resolutions that shape AAFP policies, and have the chance to be elected for various leadership positions for the next NCCL or as a delegate to the annual AAFP Congress of Delegates.
OAFP delegates to NCCL are reimbursed for eligible expenses (with the submission of a delegate report and receipts) according to the OAFP reimbursement policy. Delegates are also required to attend the OAFP Annual Meeting, which will be held on Saturday-Sunday, August 18-19, 2018, at The Grand Event Center in Columbus, OH.
