The CF Community Blog is written by the community, for the community. It's about sharing our experiences, reflections, and perspectives — the good days, the bad days, and all the tough and wonderful things in between. With topics ranging from emotional health to treatments, the blog is a platform to share your unique story.
Dr. Jennifer Taylor-Cousar is passionate about bringing attention to health inequities in cystic fibrosis. By partnering with the CF Foundation, other organizations, and the CF community, she believes we can work together to create equitable health outcomes for everyone with CF.
