Annual Congressional Black Caucus Legislative Conference 2008

For the fourth year, the ALR hosted a booth in the Health Pavilion of the Congressional Black Caucus Annual Legislative Conference, held September 24-27, 2008, in Washington, D.C.

From the Congressional Black Caucus website:

In this year of unprecedented political inroads, we come together under the theme Embracing the Promise, Realizing the Vision. What was once thought to be beyond our grasp is now at our fingertips. For the first time in years, we have a renewed energy and sense of purpose. We must harness this wave of possibility. We have breached the plateau of complacency.

The Annual Legislative Conference is a time for our community to gather from around the country, present our shared issues, brainstorm resolutions and establish an action plan for the coming year. We look forward to your contribution as we move forward to address the issues that disproportionately impact African Americans.

Hundreds of conference attendees visited the booth and walked away with more information on lupus and the work of the ALR. Thank you to our D.C. area volunteers for ably staffing the booth!
