One Community. Countless Stories. Unstoppable Strength
The National Scleroderma Foundation’s mission is to advance medical research, promote disease awareness, and provide support and education to people with scleroderma, their families and support networks. Our vision is to be a relentless force in finding a cure and improving the lives of people affected by scleroderma.
More than 300,000 Americans live with some type of scleroderma. Today, the face of scleroderma includes people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. Scleroderma can affect young parents, children, grandparents, and teenagers. Thanks to the passion and dedication of countless volunteers, scientists, and supporters, we’re advancing our mission faster than ever.
