Cystic Fibrosis is NZ's most common life-threatening inherited disease and the CF Association is the only national organisation dedicated to all aspects of the condition.

 

The CF Association Adult Representative

The Role of the Adult Rep

  • Takes part in policy planning from the viewpoint of how that policy affects Adults with CF
  • Brings concerns and priorities of the adult Cf community to the Board table through regular consultation with the Adult group
  • Acts as a conduit between the Board and the adult CF community, relaying pertinent information between the two
