Following is information about each of the methods of communication through which networkers give and receive network related information and connect with one another. All network members who have obtained the book Understanding and Coping with Achromatopsia are encouraged to subscribe to The Achromatopsia Network Journal. As network facilitator, I rely on the Achromatopsia Network Journal as my primary means of continuing to share useful and important information that supplements the information contained in the books Understanding and Coping with Achromatopsia and Living with Achromatopsia. Articles in the Journal frequently make references to sections of these two books. Network publications are sent by postal mail only.
Most communication regarding the network is handled through postal mail.
Orders and membership forms are processed as soon as possible after receipt, but this can sometimes take 2 weeks or longer. Letters from network members, from prospective networkers, and from interested professionals are answered as time permits, but this can sometimes take several weeks. This network includes hundreds of persons. It is not possible to offer individual correspondence with everyone or to provide an individualized information service. This is one reason it is so important for networkers to obtain the publications that are offered.
