The Fragility Fracture Network (FFN) is seeking nominations for Board and Executive Committee (ExCom) members.

We would like to encourage all National FFNs leaders to consider the opportunity to join us within the global organization so that we can ensure we build a sustainable organization that meets the needs of members across the world. We also want to encourage individuals who are not part of a national FFN however have experience in system level health care change and can bring a new or innovative perspective to help grow our global initiatives.
