Sickle Cell Thalassemia Patients Network coordinates with hospital admin, doctors and nurses to improve care standards; advocates for govt. agencies to increase funding for comprehensive treatment programs; provides referrals to health/social services; produces and disseminates public education material; provides direct support to patients and families, and is engaged with pharmaceutical research towards a cure. SCTPN is doing revolutionary work - caring for a community of marginalized people facing life with a congenital blood disorder, and pushing for institutional and political change. 🖤❤️ All donations go directly toward programs. Sickle Cell patients are your neighbors, coworkers, friends, strangers passing on the street. Thank you for supporting us, and for recognizing the importance of the fight against sickle cell.
