The Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO) today announced five award winners for their outstanding work and dedication to asbestos awareness related activities.

he Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO), an organization dedicated to serving as the voice of asbestos victims, today praised the passage of Senator Patty Murray (D-WA)’s Ban Asbestos in America Act of 2007 by the U.S. Senate. The Ban Asbestos in America Act is an effort to ban all production and use of asbestos in America, launch public education campaigns to raise awareness about its dangers and expand research and treatment of diseases caused by asbestos.

Today, on the anniversary of Warren's passing, our thoughts and prayers are with his son, Jordan Zevon, and the entire Zevon family. We are grateful to have Jordan’s support and determination as we continue the fight to ban asbestos globally, especially now that new studies are revealing that asbestos patients are now younger than in previous reports.
