Chronic Disease Coalition Chronic Disease Advocacy

The Chronic Disease Coalition advocates on behalf of people with chronic diseases and helps them advocate for themselves. It offers advocate training and resources, educates the public about chronic and rare conditions and raises awareness to increase research funding. The coalition also collaborates with individuals and organizations nationwide to ensure that patients with all types of chronic conditions have access to affordable, high-quality care and that the patient voice and perspective remain at the forefront.
