FL Palliative Care Coalition Summit

For the past three years, representatives from three dozen organizations throughout the State worked together as a Steering Committee to form the Florida Palliative Care Coalition and plan a quality-of-life Summit. The pandemic may have pushed back our timeline for our inaugural event, but it only enhanced our resolve to make a difference in the lives of our fellow Floridians since there are currently no formal activities or plan relative to palliative education, advocacy, awareness, access, and quality. With your support and involvement, the Coalition will be one voice, the axis for advancing palliative care in our state.

Please plan to join us for this day and a half event that includes nationally-recognized plenary speakers, opportunities for collaboration and learning.
