Hydrocephalus Awareness Day on Capitol Hill was a huge success. Thanks to all those who came from across the Country to speak and to the Members of Congress and Congressional Staffers who came to listen and learn! The PHF was proud to have organized this historic day for the Hydrocephalus Community!
