COVID-19, BUILDING YOUR IMMUNITY, LIFE AFTER GBS|CIDP DIAGNOSIS for YOUTH, WAYS to ADVOCATE, AND MORE
Although we are currently working apart, we are working together in new and innovative ways. And it is, as always, the Foundation’s top priority to keep our programs and research grants moving forward and to continue to provide our members with the vital resources they need as they cope with a GBS|CIDP diagnosis for themselves or a loved one.
Join Us for Virtual Ask the Experts
As we have postponed spring chapter meetings, fundraising walks and activities, and in the theme of “working together in new and innovative ways,” we have developed a virtual “Ask the Expert” educational series featuring medical experts from the Foundation’s Global Medical Advisory Board. Our educational series will be pre-recorded, and hosted by members of the GBS|CIDP Foundation staff, who will be asking questions that have come straight from our members via social media, phone calls, and emails. The series will be presented right here on our website, and YouTube channel.
