Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s (CHOP) Spina Bifida Program Advisory Board collaborates with the clinical team to empower and educate patients and their families. The board is made up of family members of patients with spina bifida and young adults living with spina bifida. It serves as a voice for families to advocate for their children and to recommend improvements to the program.
