Lupus is an unpredictable and potentially fatal autoimmune disease that affects 55,000 Georgians, mostly women aged 18-45, but also men, children, and women of all ages. Ninety percent of every dollar stays in Georgia to expand statewide programs and resources, including our support group network and statewide symposiums that reach patients and families in over 120 Georgia counties. The Chapter also supports the national LFA research efforts funding and advocating for investment in lupus.For more information on Georgia Chapter programs visit LupusGA.org or call 770-333-5930.
