Association News
Activities and opportunities from The CFIDS Association of America

Web site award, redesign
The Association’s web site page, “An Introduction to CFIDS: Information on Diagnosis, Treatment and Research,” was selected to receive the Links2Go Key Resource Award for chronic fatigue syndrome.

The Association continues to utilize the web to educate the public about chronic fatigue and immune dsyfunction syndrome (CFIDS). To help achieve this goal, the Association is giving its web site a complete makeover. The launch for the new site is set for early 2001.

The improved web site will be easier to use and will contain specialized areas of interest for patients, the media and medical professionals. Chronicle archives will be available on line and visitors will be able to donate and shop in a new virtual, secure environment.

Staff anniversary
November marks the Association’s first-ever, 10-year anniversary for a staff member.

Kris Hopkins began her tenure as a temporary employee assisting the Association at its 1990 research conference in Charlotte, N.C. Her job has grown over the last decade, and today she is the Operations Manager and Support Network Services Coordinator.

Thank you, Kris, for your continued dedication to the Association and its members.
