HEALTH SAFETY PROTOCOLS AT IN-PERSON WALK WITH US TO CURE LUPUS EVENTS

The health and safety of our lupus community is the Lupus Research Alliance’s (LRA) highest priority. That is why
we have decided to postpone our Mid-Atlantic Walk with Us to Cure Lupus that was scheduled for Saturday, October 1, 2022. Please stay home and stay safe!
