Barefoot Bay resident and East Central Florida Support Group co-leader, Nancy Soucy, is helping to get the word out about NTM lung disease.

Nancy has been attending local hospital health fairs, where she gets a booth and puts out a table top display board which she created herself. The board features an overview of NTM lung disease as well as information about her local support group. With her display she also has stacks of “Insight” patient pamphlets and brochure about NTM Info & Research, which she hands out to fair attendees as they stop by to learn more about pulmonary NTM. (Pictured above: Nancy manning the booth at a health fair at Sebastian Hospital.)

If you are planning to attend a health fair or conference in your area in order to educate others about NTM lung disease and would like copies of our materials to distribute, please email susanw@ntminfo.org or call 305-667-6461, ext. 26.
