Headache Advocacy Petition

From The Alliance for Headache Disorders Advocacy



HELP END THE FEDERAL NEGLECT OF CHRONIC DISABLING HEADACHE DISORDERS. SIGN THE PETITION

Migraine, cluster, and other chronic headache disorders cause tremendous suffering, disability, and economic costs in the US.

Federal research funding agencies, such as the National Institutes of Health, have neglected this burden partly because the Members of Congress with oversight of these agencies are unaware of the huge scope of the problem.

A US congressional hearing has never been devoted to headache disorders. We seek to educate your Members of Congress. But we need your help.

Right now, we ask you to please sign an on-line petition urging congressional hearings to be held on the impact of headache disorders.

Go to: headacheadvocacy.org/petition Please sign as soon as possible. It takes only a minute.

We will deliver the signed petition directly to Congress.

Also, please ask everyone and anyone you know that cares about someone suffering with a disabling headache disorder to sign as well.

Together, we can ensure that our lawmakers in Washington, DC appreciate the urgent need to reduce the enormous burden of headache disorders.

Thank you very much.
