The Massachusetts Society of Naturopathic Doctors (MSND) introduced legislation last January to license naturopathic doctors in the Bay State. The bill, An Act Establishing a Board of Registration in Naturopathy (HD 1992 /SD 166), is currently assigned to the Joint Committee of Public Health where both co-chairs are cosponsors. This bill has been very close to passing a number of times and many are optimistic that this is the year. To help support this bill, make a donation to the MSND at msnd.org.
