PAAC

« Back to Glossary Index

The PAAC is the Hypersomnia Foundation’s Patient Advisory and Advocacy Council (PAAC). This council consists of patient and supporter volunteers who meet monthly by phone conference to offer feedback to HF and share the needs of the hypersomnia community. They play a very valuable role for HF and the hypersomnia community at large.

Interested in joining the PAAC? It requires commitment to a monthly conference call, with possible email correspondence in-between. Members have IH or a related sleep disorder, or have a loved one with one of these rare disorders. The group is small so that all members can join in the discussion, and members typically rotate after a period of time. If you are interested in volunteering, please send an email to info@​hypersomniafoundation.org with the subject line “PAAC.”
