We are open to the growth of our Advisory Committee. Please feel free to reach out if you think you would be a good addition to our team.

 

We would like to recognize all those who have served our community in the past.
We are forever grateful to John Adams, Cristian Baigorria, and Tatiana Dociu, who saw the need for a unified voice for PKU patients and founded this organization in 2008.

Our organization continues to grow and thrive thanks to the support of those who are currently on the board and help as operational chairs or management members. We would not be where we are today without the guidance, leadership, and dedication of many individuals. We would like to take this opportunity to recognize former board members and operational members for all they contributed to the organization during their time with us. In alphabetical order, they are: Wilma Allen, Ruth Appanah, Tristan Audet, Jennifer Ballagh, Charles Black, France Comeau, Helene Dandurand, Marjorie Guhl, Amanda Horner, Sandra Hughes, Frances Hurst, Diane Little, Arlene McDonald, Amanda McManaman, Nicole Pallone, Jennifer Pino, Tanya Trembley, and Brienna Young.

It is especially exciting when these members choose to return and continue working with us! Currently, this is the case for Amanda Horner, Frances Hurst, Nicole Pallone, and Charles Black when the opportunity arises.
