Journeys at 2008 Conference
"This is a PAH patient’s opportunity to learn all they can about this illness from diagnosis to everyday living. It truly is an amazing three days." — Earl Selvage; 1994, 1998, 2002
Get Involved with Video Journeys | Read and Share Journeys about Previous Conferences
PHA’s Our Journeys campaign has collected and shared the stories of nearly 150 patients, caregivers and friends of the PH community. These stories have provided hope, information and a sense of community for PH patients. This year at Conference, you’ll have new and exciting ways to share your story: On film through Video Journeys and via laptop or old-fashioned pen and paper at the Journeys Café.
Video Journeys will put cameras in the hands of dozens of conference attendees, turning each into a “PH Filmmaker.” These filmmakers will use ultra-portable digital video cameras to capture the Journeys of other Conference attendees, both candidly and at a pre-arranged Journeys “studio.” The cameras are very simple to use, and it’s even easier to get involved! Become part of an exciting new era for Our Journeys. Find out how to apply to become a PH Filmmaker or Find out how you can Share your Journey on Video at Conference
And if sharing your Journey in a traditional way is more your style, you can still participate in Conference Journeys. At the Conference Journeys Café, you’ll be able to write your story on a computer or share it by putting pen to paper. You’ll have the opportunity to reflect on the special sessions and events that you attend, tell the tale of your trip to Houston, and, as always, share the story of your diagnosis and life with PH. Every night we’ll post your Conference Journeys on the PHA website so that you can share your experience with your family and friends as Conference unfolds! Read people’s stories of past Conferences and share your own
Be sure to keep checking this website for updates on these exciting new programs!
