#SCIAwarenessMonth #TodaysCare
Image description: Quote from Reeve Foundation Regional Champion, Peter Nowel: "I have been a Reeve Mentor to more than 50 SCI Patients and there is a misconception about advocacy, that "I can't do anything about it". Yes, you can! A group of 6 of us in Ohio lobbied our legislature, and as a result, we have put $6M state dollars to work funding 11 SCI Research projects. Get to know your state and congressional representatives. Bang a wheelchair into their office furniture, and I assure you, you will be remembered. You CAN make a difference!"
