Kristen Thomasino, the host of The Social Good Magazine Show, interviews Kristal Kent, founder of Veteran Voices for Fibromyalgia, a disabled Army Veteran living with Fibromyalgia. This discussion is focused on what is being done in the United States to work with government officials, and other parties focused on reducing the suffering of others with Fibromyalgia. Civil Reform is how we can rapidly change the game for many in the United States by spreading education about what millions are experiencing. Part two is how we unify to take action to make long-term changes that help impact patient outcomes rapidly. Kristal Kent is an example of a citizen utilizing the process and her community to make a difference for others with Fibromyalgia. 

Kristal identified the lack of support, healthcare options & education for those living with Fibromyalgia, especially Veterans. To address the gap in healthcare and community support, Kristal founded the initiatives "The Fibromyalgia Pain Chronicles" & "Veteran Voices For Fibromyalgia," to address the inequities in healthcare, Kristal engages in VA Policy, Legislative & Systems Advocacy.

Her advocacy efforts in 2022 helped secure a statewide proclamation recognizing Fibromyalgia in the state of Ohio, signed by Governor Mike DeWine.
