We are putting on the 11th Annual Sickle Cell Disease Educational Seminar, a crucial event for the Sickle Cell Disease Community in terms of education and advocacy. We are looking for volunteers to help check in registrants, step up and take down tables for specific events, organize or clear out spaces, and help manage activities. This event won't be possible without the support of caring, patient, and kind-hearted volunteers.

The Seminar begins at 7:oo am and ends at 7:00 pm. Volunteers may sign up for a block of time and are not expected to stay for the entire day. After you express interest, we will email you times that you may sign up for.

Organization and Event Description

The Cayenne Wellness Center advocates for, educates, and supports individuals with sickle cell disease, their caretakers, and physicians. Our mission is to ensure the best care and support for the sickle cell disease community and to help our community live long, fruitful, healthy lives.

Educational Seminar

Cayenne Wellness Center's annual educational seminar will be held for the eleventh time in San Diego at the San Diego Marriott Mission Valley, San Diego CA. The seminar is intended to inform California physicians, nurses, patients, patient caregivers, patient advocates, and community members on Alternative Approaches to Pain Management in SCD.

Patients, physicians, physician assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, nursing students, and other healthcare professionals are encouraged to attend with their practice managers.

Description

September is National Sickle Cell Disease Awareness Month. Throughout the months, from July to December (and most crucially in September), we need volunteers to do in-house mailings, set up and work the literature tables, and sign in participants at the various events that take place in September.

Mailings will be prepared in the Burbank office.

All other volunteer work will be at miscellaneous locations throughout the LA-area, depending on the sickle cell awareness event.
