#SayScleroderma
The #SayScleroderma movement was built on a simple but powerful idea
The more people who know about this disease, the closer we get to a world without scleroderma. Launched by the SRF, this campaign is focused on uplifting the voices of those living with scleroderma, sharing out critical facts about the disease, and taking action to drive awareness and change. June may be Scleroderma Awareness Month, but our commitment doesn’t end there.
Say it loudly. Say it often. #SayScleroderma until there’s a cure.
