As a part of our ongoing national strategy of outreach to patients at-risk, AAKP was invited to host a pop-up health session and full exhibit at the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) 108th Annual Convention in Baltimore, MD on July 25 and 26, 2017. At the pop-up session, AAKP’s President Paul T. Conway, Vice President and Chair of Public Policy Richard Knight, AAKP Board Member Dave White and Dr. Raquel Greer of Johns Hopkins spoke about the importance of patients engaging with their primary care physicians kidney disease, the importance of diet and exercise, the KidneyWorks initiative the importance of keeping kidney patients working, and much more. The team received multiple questions from the audience and our booth was a big hit – especially our nutrition guides, AAKP Cookbook and the opportunity to join AAKP! AAKP posted Facebook live videos while at the event. Please check out our social media sites to see more photos and videos from the convention. Facebook: @kidneypatient and Twitter: @kidneypatients
