What is Kidney Action Week?
Join us from March 2 to 5 for the American Kidney Fund's (AKF) seventh annual Kidney Action Week®! Each year, this free, virtual conference brings together members of the kidney community to learn from experts in the field and hear stories from people living with kidney disease.
This year's theme, "Supporting you every step of the way: from diagnosis to transplant," includes four days of sessions featuring nephrologists, genetic counselors, renal dietitians and patient advocates discussing a variety of topics, from kidney disease tests and initial diagnosis through treatment options and advancements. Here's a sneak peek of what you can expect to learn about each day:
- March 2: Your Diagnosis and First Steps
- March 3: Managing Your Kidney Disease
- March 4: Considering Your Treatment Options for Kidney Failure
- March 5: What's New in Kidney Disease?
Want to connect with others and get your questions answered? This year's event will feature small group breakout sessions for attendees to connect with others in the kidney community. Each day will also feature a Q&A session to get your questions answered about topics such as genetic counseling, kidney-friendly eating and kidney transplants.
