About this channel
The American Society for Meningitis Prevention (ASMP) is a nonprofit organization born out of the vision and resilience of two mothers, Patti Wukovits and Alicia Stillman. Both mothers lost their young, healthy daughters to Meningitis B, a now vaccine-preventable disease. In 2012, high school senior Kimberly, 17, Patti’s daughter, died one week before her graduation. In 2013, college sophomore Emily, 19, Alicia’s daughter, died just 36 hours after her first symptoms. Patti and Alicia, who founded the Kimberly Coffey Foundation and the Emily Stillman Foundation respectively, united to establish ASMP (formerly the Meningitis B Action Project) to ensure other families do not endure similar tragedies. ASMP strives to empower all individuals to prevent meningococcal meningitis and achieve a world without this affliction. Learn more at meningitisprevention.org.
