The success of ASPN is so clearly a result of the high level of engagement

We shared feedback about our experience during our monthly ASPN Public Policy Committee meeting, and it was exciting to hear about the existing support for the Living Donor Protection Act. We have a long road ahead, but we have an unbridled optimism that we will make this legislation a reality. I am thankful for the opportunity to join the JELF Advocacy Scholars program. I am excited to continue to learn from my JELF family and other kidney advocates. We are meeting again next month to discuss the results of the November election and how it may impact our advocacy for our patients. One thing that stayed with me after our meeting in Indianapolis is that any small step counts. And if you ever wondered if you are doing enough, the important thing is that you are doing something.

Dear friends and colleagues,
It is now exactly one year to our ESPN meeting in Vilnius, Lithuania!
The scientific committee for ESPN 2023 is proud to prepare a program of outstanding scientific
quality to stimulate cross-talk between different specialties involved in the treatment of children
with kidney disorders. Our program is designed with young nephrology fellows, the future of
our society, in mind.
While this will be a hybrid meeting, we strongly encourage in-person attendance. This will
allow opportunities for collaborations with fellow colleagues, networking with leaders in the
field, hands-on workshops and interactive discussions to promote education and research.
So, mark your diaries, book your leave and get ready to participate in ESPN 2023! We look
forward to welcoming you in Vilnius!
