2022 Annual Advocacy Day Event – SCDAA
Sickle Cell Disease Association of America, Inc. will host its 2022 Annual Advocacy Day event virtually on April 5, 2022. Join us and learn how to #BeASickleCellAdvocate!
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.
We invite individuals representing our 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.
