Ask A Collective, Not Just a Single Voice

We've been advocating for a seat at the table for People of Color.

But we recognize that one seat represents only a single voice.

To enact the meaningful change, the Global PAD Association's DEI Patient Advisory Committee aspires to achieve, they have determined it requires more than one-off, token representation.

A chorus of diverse voices, reflecting varied backgrounds and socioeconomic perspectives, is essential for authentic and effective change when it comes to peripheral artery disease where presentation, experiences, and narratives vary greatly.

Designing for a community, demands the collective input of that community.

Therefore, instead of inviting only one or two patients to come to you, DEI Committee Chairman Charles Winters and his team of nearly two dozen Patients of Color (and growing), invite ?????? to "???????? ???? ?????? ??????????", where we can amplify the ???????????????????? voice of the community, fostering true inclusivity and the change we all want to see."???????? ???? ?????? ??????????" ??????:
