The Truth About Chronic Illness (Virtual)
Event box

Julie Morgenlender, editor of the recently published The Things We Don’t Say: An Anthology of Chronic Illness Truths, will speak about how we define chronic illnesses, and how they differ and overlap with disability. As someone who has lived with chronic illness, Julie has first-hand experience of the challenges people with chronic illness face such as finding community and why we rarely speak about this topic. She will also shed light on what our loved ones with chronic illnesses experience. This program is cosponsored by the City of Newton Department of Senior Services and Understanding Our Differences.
