Hello Friend,

Another summer has passed and the fall season is upon us. We at United Spinal hope that you enjoyed the summer season in the best of health. Now, let's catch up on some news, a bit of interesting reading, and a few special offers for our friends and members.

United Spinal Commemorates Disability Awareness Month

We will be presenting a series of overviews of our programs and services throughout October. For over 60 years, our proactive approach to increasing awareness and facilitating progress on issues affecting the disability community has been the driving force of our mission.

Take action to make this a reality.
