Bleeding Disorder Advocacy Program
Hemophilia of Georgia has launched a Bleeding Disorder Advocacy Program. The Advocacy program increases advocacy efforts for the bleeding disorder community at the state and federal level, educates the public, and enhances awareness about important policy changes affecting the community. In addition, the program serves as an extension of Hemophilia of Georgia’s advocacy efforts across the entire state. The program is currently seeking advocates across the state, especially in north and south Georgia.
Advocates will possess passion, energy, and interest in advocacy, as well as a commitment to serving the bleeding disorder community. Trained Advocates will share Hemophilia of Georgia’s mission, Advocacy priorities, and accomplishments. Advocates will be engaging with the bleeding disorder community in their district at client dinners, family camp, and other client events. Advocates will also be raising awareness in the community and educating the public about bleeding disorders.
