The Scleroderma Foundation is the national organization for people with scleroderma and their families and friends. It was formed January 1, 1998, by a merger between the West Coast-based United Scleroderma Foundation and the East Coast-based Scleroderma Federation.
We have a three-fold mission: Support: To help patients and their families cope with scleroderma through mutual support programs, peer counseling, physician referrals, and educational information; Education: To promote public awareness and education through patient and health professional seminars, literature, and publicity campaigns; and Research: To stimulate and support research to improve treatment and ultimately find the cause of and cure for scleroderma and related diseases. While we budget over $1 million per year for new research into the cause and cure of scleroderma, we also consider the other two parts of our mission very important.
