GOALS

• To collaborate with other community organizations, healthcare providers as well as public and government agencies to increase public awareness of inherited blood disorders.
• To advocate for increased funding to establish more comprehensive treatment programs throughout New York State, support additional research to find more effective medicinal therapies and treatment to manage the chronic symptoms of SCD and related complications.
• To support research to find a viable cure for all people living with hemoglobin disorders.
