March 2017 Activity Report
We have been supporting two house bills in Washington regarding Out of Pocketing costs to patients and changes in prescription medication during the enrollment period. I have attached a link to our testimony before the Senate committee.

Over the next three months we will be hosting a series of meetings in support of "We Work for Health" a coalition of NW patient advocate groups. One goal is to broaden the exposure of TRIO and build our advocacy membership base. (https://weworkforhealth.org/state/washington)
The Washington State "First Washington" coalition of youth robotic teams will be building a robot designed to be part of an interactive display promoting organ donation and our Youth Council. The robot display is scheduled to be started at the end of April following their competition schedule.
Our Skin Cancer project will resume interviews in April. We have partnered with Rain Tree Productions to produce the footage with SCCA. The interviews were suspended due to SCCA schedule conflicts.
We will be launching Team TRIO March 28th with the NKF Kidney Walk at Safeco Field in Seattle. Rick Rizzo, Seattle Mariners announcer will be recording a TRIO PSA promoting TRIO and organ donation.
Thank you Sylvia and we will be sending the required documents tis week.
