The Power of 1 - The Voice of Many
2010 Advocacy & Kids' Summit
March 1-3, 2010, Washington, DC
The Advocacy & Kids' Summit is YOUR chance to tell Congress about the needs of adults and kids with arthritis. You will meet personally with your Members of Congress and their staff to share your personal story of living with arthritis and how it impacts your life. Everyone is invited!
Activity sessions are specifically created for kids who are currently in kindergarten through eighth grade. Kids in ninth through twelfth grades attend the training sessions with their parent(s). All kids must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who also registers for the Advocacy Summit.
You can find detailed information about the Advocacy & Kids' Summit and register by visiting the Summit page.
