Adrenal Insufficiency United feels that the health, safety, and well-being of our members are of utmost importance. We recognize that events in Minneapolis have raised understandable questions and concerns about travel and safety for our upcoming conference in April.
 
We are pleased to announce that there will be two options for conference attendance.
 
Virtually and In-person. However, as part of responsible planning, AIU is actively monitoring the situation and exploring expanded virtual options should conditions not improve as the conference approaches.

  • Be sure to check the box on the registration form allowing us to send you important email updates.
