We want to tell the world that ...

WE'RE STILL HERE ...

… working as executives, scholars, teachers, laborers, writers, health professionals.
… attending schools and universities.
… retired but volunteering at schools, places of worship, non-profits.
… anchoring families as parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, siblings.
… committed to enhancing the lives and independence of all survivors of polio.

WE’RE STILL HERE …

… needing greater access to education, employment and transportation.
… needing improved access to medical care, including rehabilitation and re-rehabilitation.
… asking for support of the worldwide poliovirus eradication effort, insisting that the appropriate agencies and governments finish the job and maintain appropriate vaccination rates.

What are PHI’s objectives?

• To educate about post-polio issues.
• To remind the general public of our successes and contributions.
• To find other survivors, including the oft-forgotten younger ones.
• To recruit health professionals to treat us.
• To initiate a comprehensive secure searchable database.
