We Need Advocates in These Areas

by Heather on October 5, 2020

Our amazing grassroots advocates are the reason the Lymphedema Treatment Act is the most supported healthcare bill in Congress! 

Although we have teams of advocates in every state, there are some individual Congressional districts where we do not have any members. If you reside in one of the districts named below we hope you will consider joining your state’s advocacy team

As a team member you will receive guidance from our Advocacy Training Committee, personalized information for corresponding with the health aides in your Congressional offices, and the ability to collaborate with other advocates in your state. 

There is no cost involved and no minimum time commitment required. After completing this simple sign-up form you will be introduced to the other members in your state via email and receive the information mentioned above.

New members from all areas are welcome, but below are the Congressional districts where we do not currently have members and could particularly use help, even if the member is already a cosponsor. Thank you for your advocacy!
