Listen to For Grace founder Cynthia Toussaint share inspiring insights about chronic pain, disability and her book, Battle for Grace, on host Win Charles' Butterflies of Wisdom podcast! Win, a cerebral palsy and chronic pain sufferer, and Cynthia went deep into chronic illness issues including the marriage penalty law and the critical need to raise awareness among the public and healthcare community.  Please link here to hear the one-hour show.

Women and men in pain, this is your chance to make positive impact for pain care in California. For Grace's 10th annual event will convene people with pain and their caregivers to glean critical insight about barriers to care and suggested solutions.  We will take what we learn to healthcare and policy leaders at our Summit Part Two where we'll work to implement the National Pain Strategy.

For Grace has joined 73 organizations in writing a letter to the President’s Commission on Combating Drug Addiction and the Opioid Crisis. The letter highlights the need to implement the National Pain Strategy as part of a long-term strategy to address the chronic pain and opioid epidemics, as well as the critical care needs of people with pain.

Woman In Pain Tracy Zuckerman is featured as For Grace's July Story of the Month! Her CRPS began with a car accident and changed everything in her life for the worse. Tracy's complaints of pain were quickly dismissed by her doctors and insurance company. In fact, so abused she grew to doubt herself. With time also came confidence and wisdom - and today she's an advocate for other women in pain. Hats off to you, Tracy!
