I used to a dues paying member before moving back out west.This is a great concept well implemented.We need more groups like this.I hope to renew my affiliation and edit this review to make a more substantitive case in favor of PHR.


I also called up Dr.Larry Gostin who was the United Nations Special Rappateur for the Rights of Vulnerable Persons. He was their chief at PHR, I don't recall his title, but the accessibility was helpful as I prepared a public comment for the US House of Representatives Select Committee.
