Default I have grant-writing experience & I'm sure others do, too

Thats just one example.

We need those people who are early on in their disease to get involved.

BTW it's great to see Greg and AJ posting again!!

I am willing to help write grant applications, if we get to a point where we're in agreement about what we'd like to do. For those who haven't done it but would like to give it a try, many community education programs offer classes and there is a ton of info online.

One thing, though -- foundations and gov't agencies (like NIH) generally don't give grants to individuals so we would need an organization to use as a "pass-through" for any funding we would be requesting.
