Post-Polio Health International (PHI), is a relatively new name for a
non-profit organization that officially began its work in 1960. For many years it was known in medical, rehabilitation, and disability circles variously as
GINI, or the
International Polio Network, or the
Rehabilitation Gazette Network, or more familiarly as
Gini’s Network, in honor of
Gini Laurie, its founder and driving force until her death in 1989.
