KidneySpeak from the Renal Support Network

Are you looking for ways to educate others about kidney disease?

Are you looking for patient speakers for a healthcare meeting?

You've come to the right place. KidneySpeak is designed to have the tools and resources to help patient presenters become as effective as possible in educating their community about organ donation and chronic kidney disease.

Part of KidneySpeak is the Patients Educating Patients & Professionals (PEPP) program. The PEPP program has a series of educational programs geared to people who are on dialysis and healthcare professionals.

RSN patient-speakers are respected throughout the renal community providing inspiration and information to patients and professionals across the country. RSN is happy to share tools with you to help communicate and spread awareness about chronic kidney disease.

To join the speaker group, or to request a speaker go to: http://rsnhope.org/programs/KSpeak/KSpeak_Home.php
