Supporting Patients

Our support groups relieve some of the
tremendous isolation and emotional burden that accompanies a life with Hidradenitis Suppurativa.

Advocating for Change

We empower the HS community to interact with payers, researchers, and their government to bring about the change needed to someday find a cure.

Raising Awareness

Raising awareness of Hidradenitis Suppurativa is vital in promoting compassion, understanding, and a correct, timely diagnosis.

We are a 100% volunteer, grass-roots, patient and caregiver directed non-profit organization, supporting and advocating for HS patients since 2013.
