-
- As it stands now, the only organizing for the CFS awareness day is at
- the local level. Tom Hennessey, the originator of the idea, is unable
- to do any coordinating himself, and he is recommending that every local
- support group should organize this in their local town/city. Those who
- don't know where their nearest local support group is can get a reference
- from one of the national support groups as listed in the CFS-NEWS article,
- which I copy below. Tom is recommending that the 12th of May be a
- CFS awareness day every year from now on.
