In this episode of Meet Houston Missions and the Simmons and Fletcher Local Missions Podcast, Host Paul H. Cannon talks to Sara Struwe, the CEO of the Spina Bifida Association. The Spina Bifida Association is an organization dedicated to improving the lives of people who suffer from Spina Bifida. Their goal is to improve their lives by providing resources and actively educating expectant parents, teachers, doctors, and the public about the effects of this condition and how to improve the lives of those born with it.
Spina Bifida is an incurable condition that may affect a person’s mobility and ability to care for themselves throughout their lives.
Presently, there are 133 pediatric clinics that provide a variety of doctors who are required to treat the condition. However, once a person is an adult, there are fewer doctors who really know how to treat the condition and make patients’ lives easier. Volunteers to assist with this educational process and training process are needed. Fund Raising Opportunities
