Programs & Services
In our 2015 Annual Report we set some challenging goals for growing
our programs, and we are pleased to report back.
Educational Events
The Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation (CLF) has hosted an array of
successful live programs in multiple cities across the United States
and Canada. Since our founding, the CLF has remained committed
to serving every person affected by cutaneous lymphoma. Based
upon a
10%
increase in average event attendance in the last year, the
Foundation’s efforts are making an impact.
Forum Newsletter
In keeping with our efforts to make information accessible to everyone,
the Forum provides a balance of medical information and practical
quality of life articles applicable to all affected by the disease. The Skin
Care Corner, written by the daughter of a patient, is new to the Forum
and has become a regular and popular feature. It brings to life practical
skin care information provided by clinical experts, that can be used by
patients in their everyday lives.
Patient Networking Groups
New patient networking groups were begun in Portland, OR, and Las
Vegas, NV, adding to our existing groups inWashington, DC, NewYork
City, NY, and Salt Lake City, UT. These groups are a unique opportunity
for people to connect locally and support each other in their journey of
living with cutaneous lymphoma. We are excited about the expansion
of these special networking groups and plan to continue to enhance the
current groups as well as add new groups in the future.
Webcasts
We added live-streaming to our one and two-day programs. For many
patients, traveling to a live program is not always an option. With the
addition of webcasts, we have made our programs accessible to a wider
range of individuals, as shown by almost doubling the participation and
engaging people from
26 states
and
11 countries
.
