PRESENTATIONS MADE
I know I can count on PPA to provide a speaker who is reliable, fully prepared and able to connect with the audience. These speakers graciously share their personal stories to raise awareness of the needs of preterm infants and their families, and the PPA Speakers Bureau has been a tremendous resource. The process to request and line up a speaker is easy, and our recent PPA speaker captivated the audience; she was clear, concise, informative, and spoke from the heart. I couldn’t ask for a better messenger to motivate our teams to work even harder in support of preterm infants and their families.
