UW consumer issues conference to highlight health issues

The 2004 University of Wyoming Consumer Issues Conference will focus on consumer activism related to health decisions. While past conferences have taken place on campus in March, the 5th annual event is slated for Oct. 7 at the Wyoming Union.

The purpose of the conference is to develop understanding of consumer health issues and resources available to tackle them. The gathering is also geared toward empowering consumers to seek solutions to health concerns through education, collaboration and participation in the public policy process.

Students will be involved in researching consumer health issues important to consumers and will present papers at the conference. Another goal of the event is to provide opportunities for networking among interested parties with different perspectives on consumer health issues.

Credits will be available for continuing legal education, American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences professional development and for Professional Teaching Standards Board requirements.
