You are invited to join the Lupus Foundation of America in Washington, D.C. for our 2008 Lupus Advocacy Day!

• Monday, March 10, 2008 - Westin Alexandria Hotel
• Tuesday, March 11, 2008 - Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C.

Our two-day 2008 Lupus Advocacy Program will commence on March 10th with a training session and dinner at the Westin Alexandria Hotel to discuss how to make the most of your meetings with your Members of Congress. On Tuesday, March 11th, the LFA, as well as chapter representatives, lupus physicians and researchers, and other advocates will travel to Capitol Hill to meet with Members of Congress and inform them about how debilitating lupus can be.

The LFA needs you and your friends and family members to visit your federal Representatives and Senators to urge them to support more funding for lupus research and education.
