For Grace Reso Now a Priority

GREAT NEWS! For Grace's 17-year Pain Awareness Month effort has become a California Women's Caucus priority resolution - meaning this influential group strongly supports  our annual legislation to spotlight chronic pain as a public health concern as well as the gender bias toward women in pain. This year's author is Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson, the first in a long line of women legislators going forward who will lead the charge. Reso information TBA.
