There are about 7 million Americans with psoriasis. We vote, we pay taxes. Yet as so many of us are suffering–in pain physical, emotional, and financial–due to psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, the federal government is preparing to spend just ONE DOLLAR for each of us this year on psoriasis research. That’s just TWO PERCENT of what the last Congress had originally planned to spend on the infamous Bridge to Nowhere.
Today we launch a new effort to make it easier for each of us to get involved to ultimately make psoriasis a federal priority, so we get the research funding we need (and deserve).
Our new Psoriasis Volunteer Center will enable you to sign up to help out in ways small or big, once a year or once a week. It is entirely in your hands.
Answer a few questions, tell us a bit about yourself or the types of projects you would consider doing, and we will contact you if and when we could use your help. Whether you are able to speak once a year to a newspaper reporter in California, or are able to volunteer weekly from your home in Illinois, we can deploy your talents to advance our common goals:
Make psoriasis a national priority.Increase research on the disease.
End the stigma.
Find a cure.
Please, fill out the simple form at our Psoriasis Volunteer Center so we can use your passion and talent effectively. You are in complete control of if, when and how much you help. You can read more about this new effort here. Thanks for your support!
