SUMMARY:EmPOWER M.E. 2023: Navigating the World with Energy Limiting Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:Hosting EmPOWER M.E. during Advocacy Week each year is one of our favorite ways to connect with our community after a long week of congressional meetings.  \nThis year\, our Lived Experience Taskforce (LET) partners helped us choose our topic: Navigating the World with Energy Limiting Disabilities. This special event on April 21 at 10 AM ET will feature expert ME/CFS and Long Covid advocates sharing tips for overcoming personal\, professional\, and medical challenges. \nDuring our EmPOWER M.E. roundtables\, we convene panels of patient advocates\, professionals\, and scientists to share their expertise on topics relevant to the quality of life for people with ME/CFS\, Long Covid\, and their caregivers.
