Sickle cell disease is more than a medical condition—it is a public health issue, a health equity issue, and a call to action.
Come hear from patients, caregivers, physicians, researchers, blood donation experts, public health leaders, and policymakers as we discuss how we can work together to improve access to care, expand blood donation, reduce health disparities, and create lasting change.
