Resources

The National Scleroderma Foundation has gathered a number of resources, from information sheets to video lectures, that can help patients better understand the symptoms related to scleroderma, as well as the research that is happening to search for treatments and a cure.

Chapters are the front line of contact between individuals affected by scleroderma and the National Scleroderma Foundation. They know the individuals in their community. The chapter embodies the strength of the scleroderma community. Each chapter plays an essential role in delivering the organization’s mission.
