Health Activists (HAs) are influential voices in the health care community. They are passionate about raising awareness for health causes, dedicated to finding the best information about health conditions, and relentless in their commitment to help others. They are the leaders in Health advocacy. Health Activists are often Community Leaders, Bloggers, on Facebook, on Twitter, and a part of leading online forums. They work daily to improve the way people talk and think about health.[1]

Each Health Activist has a unique story but most start his or her journey with self-education, empowerment, and understanding about a specific health condition. Through personal experience and by eagerly pursuing knowledge of certain conditions, Health Activists stand out from the pack. They answer questions, offer resources, and help bring the sense of empowerment they have found in their own lives outward to others. Health Activists work in different spaces, both online and offline. Health Activists start non-profits, support groups, and awareness campaigns. They enact legislation. They use online platforms and social media to create something buzzworthy. All Health Activists are: a voice for their condition, devoted to their health communities, and quality leaders.
