“Removing Trump will not remove the infrastructure of an entire party that embraced him; the dark money that funded him; the online radicalization that drummed his army; nor the racism he amplified and reanimated”
-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
“Having my provider check in about my mental health as well as my physical health is really helpful..Make sure language is being used intentionally and in an affirming way! “We want to hear things that address the concerns patients have.” -Rosa

PAC members talk about how they developed their perspectives on living with a chronic disease. “Having people you can talk who understand from their own experience can be so powerful. It’s something patients and parents might not think they need until they have it.” #ICNCC20F
Key takeaway: being in a group like @ICNPatients where you can speak to others who are "in the same boat" can help patients develop the confidence and skill to share their own stories - just talking it through with peers who understand is very valuable. #ICNCC20F
“If the patient is comfortable, try introducing them to the PAC or a support group as a resource. Having a group of people who understand what you’re going through is very important.” PAC members talk about joining the PAC and using our resources as support! #ICNCC20F 💙💚
