If not now,
when?
Medical freedom doesn’t protect itself.
The decisions being made today can shape the choices our families have tomorrow.
Whether it’s protecting informed consent, pushing back against medical mandates and coercion, advocating for better laws, or simply having the knowledge to make confident decisions for your own family, being informed matters.
The Informed Conference was created to bring people together to learn, ask questions, connect with others and leave with tools they can actually use.
You don’t have to be a doctor, an expert or a seasoned advocate to make a difference. You just have to be willing to learn, get involved and use your voice.
For eight years, we’ve been building a community of Iowans who believe medical decisions belong to individuals and families.
If not now, when?
Join us October 24 for the 8th Annual Informed Conference.
