Life Without Lupus
We provide 8 interactive monthly support groups for lupus patients throughout Ontario.
We provide education through our monthly newsletters, webinars, podcasts, and an annual Lupus Symposium.
We use our social media, website, and monthly newsletter to create awareness on lupus.
Working with our Medical Advisory Board and other partners, we support several advocacy initiatives annually.
We provide funding to the Geoff Carr Lupus Research Fellowship, The Honey Agar Fellowship for High-Risk Pregnancy in Rheumatic Diseases and 6 accredited lupus clinics in Ontario.
