purpose

Operational Support & Awareness

Creating a centralized state-of-the-art collection of clinical and research data so researchers can vastly improve our understanding of Relapsing Polychondritis and related diseases.

Where There’s Research, There’s Hope

Until recently, there were few options and even fewer resources for patients living with RP. We’re working every day to unlock the mysteries of RP and deliver hope to patients and their families.
