Become an Advocate

Did you know that the majority of sickle cell research is paid for by the federal government and that your U.S. Senators and Representatives get to decide how much is spent each year?

Do you wish to know more about legislation that support sickle cell research and program efforts?

Become a SCDAA Advocate today! Advocacy is just one more way you can make a difference for people living with sickle cell disease and inspire our elected officials to champion for change. Advocate volunteers watch over and advocate for programs, services and research efforts that affect the entire sickle cell community. Our advocate volunteers maintain ongoing communication with SCDAA national and its legislative champions to insure that our voices are being heard. We need you!

Are you ready?
