Company executives from all four trade associations convene on Capitol Hill for a full day of networking and discussions with Congressional offices. Known as "Day on the Hill," this event encourages member companies to take a more active role in advocating for reasonable regulation and ensure Congress is well familiar with responsible dietary supplement industry. Participation in Day on the Hill is an opportunity for AHPA, CHPA, CRN and UNPA members to collectively engage with Capitol Hill in a meaningful and impactful way.
