"Creating Awareness One Parish at a Time"
We are the VOICE and the STRENGTH for those who struggle for a diagnosis of dysautonomia, due to lack of education and awareness. We are the HELPING HANDS that find resources for our members and their caretakers, so no one travels this journey alone. We are here to bring KNOWLEDGE and AWARENESS to medical providers and the general public, so dysautonomia is no longer unheard of.
Thank you to our 2023 sponsors!
