We work in New York, Northern New Jersey, and Connecticut to provide support and education to people affected by scleroderma, while we fundraise to advance our mission. The Tri-State Chapter community hosts a number of chapter-specific support groups.
You can also get involved fundraising and spreading awareness in your community by joining a Stepping Out to Cure Scleroderma event.
