We invite you to become a partner in our mission to help patients and their families, train students to become effective advocates for patients, and develop and refine a unique curriculum that inserts patient advocacy into the heart of the health-care discussion. The research is clear: empowered patients get better quality, safer and more effective care. Our students become professionals who make partnering with their patients and clients a priority. Your gift will help us transform how professionals and consumers navigate the health-care system. Together, we can sustain hope, raise expectations and change lives.
