Urgent – ALS Association CEO hosting virtual meeting TUESDAY to solicit input from the ALS community | #ALS AWARENESS #LouGehrigsDisease #PARKINSONS | Scoop.it
I am asking every ALS patient, as well as their caretakers and loved ones, to speak up for our community this Tuesday. Barbara Newhouse and members of the National Board of Trustees are holding a live virtual listening event to allow us to voice our needs, thoughts and suggestions. It is scheduled for THIS TUESDAY, June 21st, 1pm ET or 10am PT. We’ve all been asking for this, and now we have been given the opportunity. Let’s make it count!!! Since it is a WebEx event, it is my assumption we will be able to provide our comments by either typing or verbally. It is two hours in duration, and you must register to attend. We are requested to REGISTER BY TOMORROW, Monday, June 20th. I’ve never seen such a long hyperlink, but here is where you register:
