In this webinar, participants will learn how to share their health
journey—challenges, successes, and setbacks—in a way that resonates with others
and promotes positive change. The session will provide valuable tools and
strategies to help you tell your story authentically and compellingly. You'll
walk away with practical skills to advocate for yourself, others, and
contribute to important causes that impact healthcare and research.
The How to Advocate for You and Others Workshop equips individuals with
chronic illness and caregivers to become confident self-advocates. Participants
will learn practical strategies to communicate their needs, navigate healthcare
systems, and access essential non-medical support resources. The session also
provides tools to advocate for loved ones, helping amplify their voices and
improve their overall well-being.

community-based services and to offer personalized, one-on-one support through
