Our Working Groups
Working Together – Achieving Equitable Treatment - Transforming Lives for Women and Girls!
This coalition exists to build a grassroots movement to advance equitable access to diagnosis, care and treatment for women and girls and those assigned at birth, with bleeding disorders. To facilitate this, FAIR Time for Women Coalition has identified three key focus areas for our volunteer working groups.
* Data and Research
This group is charged with identifying and condensing as much of the research and data that has been developed and published in the diagnosis, care and treatment of women with bleeding disorders.
* Communication
This group is charged with ensuring FAIR is widely communicating the needs of women with bleeding disorders and identifying others doing the same and asking how we can support their work.
* Advocacy
This group is charged with identifying and championing key areas of change, processes or policies that can improve the quality of life for women with bleeding disorders.
Our working groups consist of patients, family members, health care providers, industry representatives, advocacy organizations, and others who have expressed an interest in furthering the FAIR Time for Women Coalition mission.
