Be heard and get a free OAC membership! Important!

I wanted to share an advocacy program and the opportunity to sign a petition, and obtain a free one-year membership in the OAC.  Even if you are already a member of the OAC, this advocacy opportunity is important and worthwhile to use your voice.

 The C.H.O.I.C.E. (Choosing Health over Obesity Inspiring Change through Empowerment) Campaign is an educational initiative sponsored by Allergan, Inc., the makers of the LAP-BAND® Adjustable Gastric Banding System.  Allergan created this campaign to provide a platform for us as pre-ops, post-ops, healthcare professionals and Congress to work together to address the obesity epidemic through a dual focus on prevention and treatment, to reduce the prevalence of obesity and ultimately help the obese regain their health and their lives. 

You can sign the petition and add your name to the goal of 250,000 names on the petition to Congress.  As we know, there is strength in numbers and OH SGLs, as a team, along with our support group members, represent a very loud voice!  Through this campaign, we can influence the dialogue on the obesity epidemic and help shape policies that can make a real difference in our efforts to reduce the obesity epidemic.
