Dr. Doehring's experience in academia and additional career experiences have afforded her the unique opportunity to develop an extensive record of service. This service includes various health-related advocacy efforts from local through governmental level, including being invited to testify on SB2572 before an IL House Committee regarding physical activity/ education legislation. Her involvement in professional organizations within her field., as well as participation on different committees throughout the University is also quite extensive. One of the most important aspects to all of this service though, is how Dr. Doehring is able to extend this to the classroom, offering novel and creative aspects to her teaching and learning for her students. As such, she continues to serve as an Advocate with several organizations, including the American Heart Association and the Alzheimerâ¿¿s Association.
