The advocacy award was presented to Dr. Treadwell for her tireless and phenomenal work in men's health as well as her commitment and dedication to ensuring that the nation achieves health justice and health equity.  In addition, Dr. Treadwell served as a guest panelist at the conference to provide insight on the men's health crisis.   "We are at a point in our nation where we must think about things differently," says Treadwell.  "We will not be satisfied until we are able to say not just that we 'told them about it' but that 'this is what we changed."'
