Community Education Events

At community events, our Think Liver Think Life® team provides engaging, hands-on education about liver health and wellness. We connect with liver patients, their families, and the broader community to share the programs and resources offered by American Liver Foundation, and include a free, family‑friendly activity for children and adults to enjoy.
