Celebrating Patient Solidarity Day and Welcoming Mike Lawing Back!

Robin Martinez and Joyce Graff are happy to welcome Mike Lawing back to the team!

Mike was featured in a recent issue of CancerToday http://www.cancertodaymag.org/Summer2017/Pages/The-Gift-of-Music.aspx

Today is Patient Solidarity Day!  This is a good opportunity for us to talk about what Patient Empowerment means to each of us, and how we as individuals and Powerful Patient as a group work to empower patients.  Why is this important?  Come listen in and add your two cents as well.

Patients have the right to be engaged as key partners, empowered to play a genuine and meaningful role in shaping decisions about their own health.  This Patient Solidarity Day, advocates from across the world are standing united in recognition of the significant need for, and benefit of, empowered and informed patients.  Patient empowerment will only be achievable if we, as patient advocates, decision-makers, policy-makers, academics and industry, all work together for: "Globally empowered patients: Power through Knowledge."
