UNIGHT – Discuss. Share. Connect.

Monday, September 25 at 7:00 p.m. (Eastern)

Join us every month via Zoom at 7:00 PM (Eastern) / 4:00 PM (Pacific) for UNIGHT – a monthly virtual get together for people with sleep disorders, their family and friends to have an open, casual discussion about various topics related to living with a sleep disorder. UNIGHT is an opportunity to discuss, share, connect, and just be ourselves.

The month’s UNIGHT is Monday, September 25 at 7:00 PM (Eastern) / 4:00 PM (Pacific) for a discussion about “Social Supports” with UNIGHT hosts Matthew Horsnell and Shelly Gonzales, Hypersomnia Foundation Board member Michael Sparace, and special guest, Hollis Rhone. 

Hollis is a 22-year-old person with IH who was diagnosed when she was entering her fourth year at McGill University. She is currently in her fifth year at McGill completing a Bachelor of Arts & Science in Chemistry and Anthropology. Hollis recently joined the Hypersomnia Foundation’s Patient Advisory Council, and she is the captain of the McGill University Sailing Team this season.

Registration for UNIGHT is FREE!

Each UNIGHT meeting is a great opportunity for everyone to discuss, share, connect and just be ourselves.
