SUMMARY:HCP Italia
DESCRIPTION:The Human Collective Project (HCP) è l’incontro del gruppo di supporto di TSF offerto a chiunque sia stato colpito/colpito da NMOSD/MOGAD. Il programma è nato durante il culmine della pandemia di COVID-19 nel 2020\, quando la maggior parte dei NMOSD/MOGAD si sentiva particolarmente isolata e vulnerabile al coronavirus come membri della società immunosoppressi/immunocompromessi. L’isolamento che molti di noi hanno vissuto ha svelato un grande bisogno e un’opportunità per noi di connetterci in modo significativo per offrire il nostro sostegno reciproco. \nDal 2020\, abbiamo ampliato il programma per offrire più sessioni in più aree geografiche per garantire che tutti nelle comunità NMOSD/MOGAD si sentano accolti e inclusi. Come diciamo sempre\, HCP è un ottimo modo per incontrare altri in circostanze simili in questa rara comunità; è uno spazio sicuro per ridere\, piangere\, sfogarsi\, condividere vittorie\, ecc. Questo programma è guidato e guidato dagli ambasciatori di pazienti e caregiver di TSF in tutto il mondo.

The program came into existence during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020\, when most NMOSD/MOGAD felt particularly isolated and vulnerable to the coronavirus as immunosuppressed/immunocompromised members of society.

SUMMARY:Le Projet Collectif Humain
DESCRIPTION:The Human Collective Project (HCP) est la réunion du groupe de soutien de TSF offerte à toute personne affectée par la NMOSD ou la MOGAD. Le programme a vu le jour au plus fort de la pandémie de COVID-19 en 2020\, lorsque la plupart des patients NMOSD/MOGAD se sentaient particulièrement isolés et vulnérables au coronavirus en tant que patient dit “vulnérable” de part son traitement contre ma maladie.\nL’isolement que beaucoup d’entre nous avons vécu a révélé un grand besoin et une opportunité pour nous de nous connecter de manière significative pour nous offrir notre soutien les uns aux autres. \nDepuis 2020\, nous avons élargi le programme pour offrir plus de sessions dans plusieurs zones géographiques afin de garantir que tous les membres des communautés NMOSD/MOGAD se sentent accueillis et inclus. Comme nous le disons toujours\, HCP est un excellent moyen de rencontrer d’autres personnes dans des circonstances similaires dans cette communauté rare; c’est un espace sûr pour rire\, pleurer\, évacuer\, partager les victoires\, etc. Ce programme est piloté et dirigé par les patients et soignants ambassadeurs de TSF dans le monde entier.
