Burn Support Magazine: Spring 2021
Inside this digital issue of Burn Support Magazine...
Letter from Amy Acton, CEO
Dear Friends,
As I read this issue of Burn Support Magazine, I’m struck by the power and wisdom of our community’s young leaders. Past Phoenix Fellows, Peer Mentors, Phoenix World Burn Congress attendees, and burn camp participants—these survivors have come of age in the burn community and are finding ways to give back. As I explore their work in this issue, I can’t help reflecting on my own journey of engagement and eventual leadership.
