Outstanding news from Minnesota! 🎉

Congratulations to the Minnesota Acupuncture Association and Dr. Nick Dougherty, Vice Chair of the NCBAHM Board of Commissioners, on the passage of Minnesota House Bill 1270, recently signed into law by Governor Tim Walz.

This landmark legislation modernizes and expands Minnesota's licensing and practice standards for acupuncture and herbal medicine—strengthening the profession's regulatory framework and helping ensure continued access to high-quality patient care. It also marks a historic milestone as the first law to officially recognize our new name: the National Certification Board for Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine (NCBAHM).

We extend our sincere appreciation to Dr. Dougherty for his leadership and support, and to everyone whose years of dedicated advocacy made this possible! 👏

⏰ Friday is the deadline!!!

This Friday, a House Appropriations Subcommittee will consider funding for the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) — the federal home for whole-person health research.

NCCIH funds the science behind integrative and acupuncture-related care, evidence that informs patient care and clinical practice every day. As Congress weighs its future, lawmakers need to hear from the practitioners, researchers, and patients who value this work.
