Spinal Cord Injury Awareness Day

Date: 

Tuesday, September 15, 2015, 12:00pm to 1:00pm

Location: 

Massachusetts State House, Hall of Flags, Great Hall, Beacon Hill, Boston, MA

A COLLABORATION OF MASSACHUSETTS REHABILITATION FACILITIES, CONSUMER ORGANIZATIONS, LEGISLATORS, SCIENTISTS, RESEARCHERS, POLICY MAKERS, AND ADVOCATES WORKING TOWARD A COMMON GOAL TO INCREASE AWARENESS AND FUNDING FOR SPINAL CORD INJURY

The program this year is about persuasive communication. “TELL YOUR STORY.”

We know we need increased funding for research to a cure. We need to show our legislators in human terms the value of increased funding.

The SCI Trust Fund was established in 2004 to provide funding opportunities for SCI research in Massachusetts. To date $750,000 has been allocated to this fund.

Please join us at the State House to show your support and inform lawmakers about SCI. A buffet lunch will be available.
