“Make Your Voice Heard by Joining the CPF’s Campaign ACT Today!” Simply sign up here and become part of the ACT campaign today! The CPF’s campaign ACT (Ask. Challenge. Take Action!) is a national advocacy campaign coordinated by the CPF to unify the voice of our patients and physicians in Washington D.C. The CPF regularly advocates for increased federal funding for pulmonary fibrosis and for legislation in Congress that is important to the community we serve. The ACT Campaign relies on the participation of patients, their families, and all those that are affected by the IPF, and is supported by each of the CPF’s five nonprofit partners. By joining the ACT campaign, you will become part of an army of volunteers who will contact Congress, national health policymakers and the media to educate them about the IPF. Every three months members will receive the CPF’s ACT Action Alert, a newsletter detailing the advocacy efforts and outlining ways for you to help. The CPF partners with the American Thoracic Society for advocacy and to fund important pulmonary fibrosis research. We share their concern regarding the potential cuts to health research and services and ask that you support their efforts by contacting your Member of Congress.
