Last year, SHM was one of a number of healthcare and nutrition organizations to join the new Alliance to Advance Patient Nutrition campaign to address nutrition issues for hospitalized patients. In June, the Alliance was honored with the public relations industry’s most distinguished award recognizing the very best campaigns in PR: the Silver Anvil. The award was bestowed by the Public Relations Society of America, and CooperKatz, the firm that launched the campaign, accepted the award on behalf of the team.

The launch of the Alliance was awarded the outstanding public service campaign for 2013.
