OUR SERVICES FOR PATIENTS AND FAMILIES INCLUDE:

EDUCATION:
We host Learning for Life Seminars for our members on topics such as “Post-Secondary Planning” and “sickle cell disease Research Updates”.
We participate in Community Events, raise awareness about sickle cell disease and educate at-risk communities.
We work with sickle cell disease experts to educate and update health care providers about managing sickle cell disease.

GRANTS:
We award annual Post-Secondary Scholarships to students with sickle cell disease who have secured a place in tertiary education.
We also offer small emergency grants to patients, to help offset financial emergencies when their need is greatest.
