Do you have a heart for making sure the voice of patients is kept at the center of the Preeclampsia Foundation's mission? Do you want to represent the views of other preeclampsia, eclampsia, and HELLP syndrome survivors like you? Then consider applying to be a member of our Patient Advisory Council!
The
Patient Advisory Council ("PAC") serves as a diverse advisory resource to the Board of Directors and staff of the Preeclampsia Foundation for the purpose of maintaining and furthering the Foundation's position as a patient-centered, patient-driven patient advocacy organization. The PAC operates to directly engage patients, the Board, and staff in meaningful, ongoing communication, and to provide patient feedback about specific programs.
As the PAC membership changes and grows, so too do our needs as we strive to represent the breadth of experiences and backgrounds that make up the "preeclampsia patient." For that reason, we invite anyone interested in serving on the PAC to apply at this time, even if you have previously submitted an application.
Each member of the PAC is a preeclampsia survivor or a family member of a woman who suffered death or disability such that she is unable to represent herself as the result of preeclampsia. The PAC is currently accepting applicants through
July 1, 2015 via an
online application, which will be reviewed by the PAC in the fall. Read the
press release for more information on what the position entails.
