SSF Fall Update & Ways to Help
Dear Friends,
It's been a busy and exciting fall here at the Sjögren's Syndrome Foundation! In addition to the SSF's fall community awareness events, the Foundation staff is now getting ready to attend another scientific meeting, the American College of Rheumatology's (ACR) Annual Meeting, to focus on professional education of Sjögren's.
At the ACR Annual Meeting, the SSF will be both an exhibitor and presenter, in addition to holding working groups for those who treat Sjögren's. This meeting is the SSF's biggest venue for reaching rheumatologists and providing them the educational materials needed to better identify and treat their Sjögren's patients.
These SSF initiatives and programs that further our mission are only possible because of your support. As you can see below, there are many different ways that you can help this fall. I encourage you to learn about these opportunities and join our fight to conquer Sjögren's!

On behalf of the SSF, thank you for sharing your story, telling others about the SSF, attending our events, volunteering your time, donating and helping create a future of hope for all Sjögren's patients.
Sincerely,
Steven Taylor
Chief Executive Office
New T-Shirt Design for Team Sjögren’s Turkey Trot Kits!

Learn what was Turkey Trot Alumni Erin's favorite part of joining Team Sjögren's!
My family and I wore our Team Sjögren’s T-Shirts and as we were racing, multiple people would comment about their friends, family or themselves being affected by this disease. Knowing that the Turkey Trot was bringing people together for a cause I believed in was a wonderful feeling.

Whether you run or not, if you are a patient or know someone with this disease, we are all part of Team Sjögren's.
