Advocacy Day – Sickle Cell Disease Association of America, Inc.
Sickle Cell Disease Association of America, Inc. (SCDAA) will host its 2021 Annual Advocacy Day event on April 20-21 from 4-5 p.m. Eastern Time.
In response to COVID-19, Advocacy Day will be held virtually this year.
Advocacy Day is an opportunity for patients and caregivers affected by sickle cell disease to learn how to advocate for issues that are important to them. Participants will learn about the key legislative issues that are important to individuals living with SCD and their families, including promoting stable funding for research, better healthcare access and increased education and awareness for the sickle cell community throughout the country.
SCDAA invites individuals representing their 53 member organizations and affiliates from 29 states to participate in this virtual advocacy training and raise awareness of sickle cell disease.
This event has ended.
