| Statement Note 1 | RENAL SUPPORT NETWORK2022 FORM 99095-4672679QUALIFYING AS PUBLICLY SUPPORTEDRSN is the leader in engaging people who have kidney disease with the most prolific library of patient experience.Renal Support Network's(RSN) hopeful, life-enriching programs help people who have kidney disease and their families, whether they are in the early stages of the disease, are on dialysis or have received a transplant.Lori Hartwell founded RSN in 1993 to empower people who have kidney disease to become knowledgeable about their illness, proactive in their care, hopeful about their future and to make friendships that last a lifetime. Lori was diagnosed in 1968 with kidney failure and knows how important hope, peer connection and knowledge are to survive and thrive with an illness. People we connect with come to see kidney disease in a totally different light - that although it is difficult, it is manageable. We help them recognize the need to take control of the course and management of their illness through storytelling. Learning from another patient's experience and point of wisdom to live successfully and navigate care is vital for success.RSN fills this need and reaches hundreds of thousands of people a year through its many cross-promotions, outreach, education, hopeful and advocacy initiatives.KidneyTalk Bi-annual News Magazine: Since 2005, RSN's News Magazine has educated and inspired readers with its patient-driven articles and stories of hope.

In 2020, RSN celebrated its 18th year of providing a place for people to share their inspirational stories of living with chronic kidney disease. This year's essay contest theme - "Thriving No Matter What I Can or Can't Eat: A Happy Food Experience on the Kidney Diet" - encouraged these people anecdotes and discoveries that have improved health, well-being and the daily routine of living with a chronic illness where smart food choices are a key element. This essay contest provides an outstanding opportunity for these people with chronic kidney disease to make a valuable contribution to society by expressing their ideas, views and most importantly, hope.HopeWeek: For almost three decades, RSN has hosted its annual Patient Education Meeting for people living with kidney disease, along with their families, as well as healthcare professionals and anyone who wants to learn more about kidney disease. We have now switched to an online event and can reach more people and help them learn how to navigate this illness. Each day focuses on a specific aspect, or stage, of chronic kidney disease, including dialysis, insurance, kidney transplantation, and daily life issues. Heathcare professionals and others in the kidney community share their expertise, advice and stories. RSN strongly supports equitable access to information regardless of barriers, thereby providing a virtual platform for those who cannot attend in-person due to physical, geographic, or other constraints, to be an integral part, and teaches all attendees how to be their own health advocates. The event is meant to be a source of education and inspiration for everyone. In 2020, RSN introduced this national, virtual five-day event. Speakers include healthcare professionals and people who have learned to live and thrive despite having kidney disease. Each day has a series of presentations that focuses on a specific disease or treatment for kidney disease including an entire day dedicated to pediatric kidney disease. Tuesday - Focus on Chronic Kidney Disease Prevention, Delay Progression and Treatment, Wednesday - Focus on Dialysis Care, Thursday - Focus on Transplant, Friday - Focus on Lifestyle Issues, Saturday - Focus on Youth, Family and Kidney Disease. All presentations will be edited and loaded onto our website.23th Annual Renal Teen Prom: Prom season comes early for teens and young adults who have been diagnosed with kidney disease, and to those who are on dialysis or have a kidney transplant. The first prom was hosted in 2000 by Lori Hartwell, RSN's President and Founder, who missed missing many school activities, including her own prom due to being on dialysis from age 12 to 24. She didn't want other teens to miss their own coming-of-age event. The prom brings these young people together to meet each other to share their experiences, strengths, and hopes. It lets them know they are not alone and how 'one friend can make a diffence'. This event is at no charge to attendees and their guests. Advocacy and Patient Outreach: We continue to follow and advocate for the Chronic Kidney Disease Improvement in Research & Treatment Act and the Living Donor Protection Act. RSN is an active member of Kidney Care Partners. We provide the patients perspective in high-level administrative meetings and through op-eds. The Advancing American Kidney Health initiativesambitious goal to see 80 percent of new patients either starton home dialysis or receive preemptive transplants by 2025 is a bit unrealistic. Nevertheless, RSN is committed to helping patients choose the option that is best for them through our many educational programs. We have engaged in quality measures development, pending regulatory and legislative issues, and the importance of allowing payment to align with best practices and quality measures. We continue to focus on the importance of medication, dialysis, and dietary adherence, and the best ways to provide emotional support to patients and their families, especially during COVID-19. We also ramped up our online ZOOM outreach to allow people to participate. RSN collaborates with Kidney Care Partners, The National Quality Forum, Kidney Care Quality Alliance, California Dialysis Council, and several ESRD networks. RSN members participate in coalitions that work to improve CKD well-being and access to care. Many of our members have penned articles for CJASN to get the patients perspective across in peer-reviewed studies being published. We engage and educate patient advocates to provide the patient perspective.
