Going to college was once a dream that people with CF could only watch others pursue. Those days are gone!

Become a USC Trojan for the day when Amy reaches her lifelong dream in sunny L.A.
The CFvoice Go>To team hits the West Coast next to give you a peek at the 22nd National Cystic Fibrosis Family Education Conference. Families living with CF, as well as health care providers and educators, will gather in Redwood City, California, this summer to exchange information, coping skills and hope under one idea: The Power of New Possibilities. We'll bring you the stories of optimism and support from this annual Bay-area conference!

Keeping the car on the road, Ellen Harwick runs the show from behind her clipboard. This Production Manager extraordinaire juggles the location, the people and the crew in a way that would impress P.T. Barnum. In three words: Reliable, efficient and caffeine-driven.
Behind the camera lives Joel Bergsma, the affable Camera Operator and Editor who captures the people and places we visit on the Go>To series.
