SUMMARY:25th Annual BCIL Marie Feltin Award Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to the annual BCIL Marie Feltin Award\, celebrating its 25th anniversary this year! \nThis event honors individuals and institutions who exemplify the pioneering spirit of the late DR. MARIE FELTIN\, a tireless advocate for disabled and chronically ill patients. Marie was a founder of Boston’s Community Medical Group\, East Boston Health Center’s Home Care Program and the Urban Medical Group\, healthcare services that focused on patients becoming actively involved in their care as a critical means to bettering their health. Marie was always available for her patients and was a modern-day pioneer in providing medical care to society’s neglected and vulnerable populations. \nThe ceremony supports BCIL  and is a tribute to Marie’s legacy\, which epitomizes BCIL’s mission of empowering individuals with disabilities to take control of their lives and live independently. BCIL promotes the CIVIL RIGHTS of all people with disabilities and our ENERGIZED ADVOCACY supports and helps create EQUAL ACCESS to healthcare\, affordable housing\, accessible transportation\, and ADA compliance for thousands of Greater Boston residents each year\, leading many to jobs\, an education\, and SELF-SUFFICIENCY for themselves and their families. \nTo register to attend go to:  \nTo be an event sponsor or supporter go to:  https://bostoncil.org/bcil-marie-feltin-award-ceremony-tickets-and-sponsorships/ \n
