Our motto is Patients Helping Patients . Funds granted to these patients are used to pay for transportation to and from treatments and for such basic living expenses as food, rent, clothing, medications, insurance premiums, and utilities. You can now dowload the PAC Application Form and the Policies and Procedures instructions from this web site. These two documents are in Adobe Portable Documentr Format. Please make photocopies of the Application for your use.
Applications are available in early Spring.
The amount and number of scholarships may vary from year to year. Most meetings feature a presentation by a health professional. A quarterly newsletter, the RenalGram , informs members about recent medical advances, facts relating to treatment, upcoming events for patients, important legislation, and the progress of their fellow patients. In addition to the many articles by professionals are chapters by patients and family members. The Handbook unfortunately is out of print.
