Thank you for your interest and patience

Due to a lack of volunteers we have been unable to plan and execute an expo in the last couple of years. We are looking into ways to solve our lack of manpower so that we may hold our event again in the coming years.

If you would like to volunteer, exhibit, or speak, or know someone who would, please contact us at tucsonrsd@yahoo.com.

Thank you for your continued interest. And please check back here for updates.

Thank you for your participation!

Thank you to everyone who participated in and attended this year's expo!

It was a wonderful event and we hope you all found it informative and beneficial.

We hope to have the event again next year. So check back here next year for new details.

In the meantime, we encourage you to participate in a support group and to pursue treatment options that are right for you.

Take Care!

I know that those who attended, as well as those who exhibited, learned much from the event.
