The 2024 NJAFP House of Delegates (HOD) will convene on Friday, May 3, 2024 at 9:00am at the Tropicana Resort in Atlantic City. Join us as we continue to forge a strong path for Family Medicine in New Jersey.
LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD!
We urge you to let us know what you are passionate about and what NJAFP can do to enhance your practice experience. This is an important piece of our year-round advocacy effort. Consider writing a resolution to present at this year’s HOD. Resolutions can impact great change in healthcare - great ideas should not go to waste. Last year, the NJAFP HOD passed a resolution supporting the continuation of telemedicine reimbursement policies - and this year the NJ State Legislature made it a reality.

Any member in good standing is eligible to write and present a resolution at the House of Delegates.
