Hello Partners in Advocacy!
The Sickle Cell/Thalassemia Patients Network (SCTPN) on behalf of all of the other sickle cell disease (SCD) community organizations are circulating a letter to the Chairs of the Assembly and Senate Health Committees for support of the Sickle Cell Disease Education and Detection bill S1839.

SCTPN are inviting organizations who care about rare and chronic diseases and improving the quality of life for those who are impacted to sign on to the letter linked below.
If your organization supports the Senate Bill S1839 (Sanders), email “Yes, I Support” to Ginger Davis [email protected] or Ashley Thompkins at [email protected].
