LUPUS: A hidden battle fought by millions

Imagine a condition where your own immune system turns against you, attacking healthy tissues and organs. Unpredictable symptoms, like pain, fatigue, skin rashes, and the challenges of diagnosis and management. This is the reality of lupus, a disease that impacts every individual differently.


You are not alone in your journey with lupus. An estimated 5 million people globally including 1.5 million Americans are living with lupus.

​A complex disease, often misunderstood, and significantly underfunded in relation to its impact.

This page is a resource for learning about lupus, connecting with others, and finding the support you need to navigate the daily challenges of living with lupus.​

Our goal is to help raise awareness, support the lupus community, and advocate for more research to find a cure.
