Recognizing Lupus Canada - December 4th, 2024
Over one in a thousand Canadians are impacted by lupus, but because of its varied symptoms, diagnosis is a time-consuming and challenging process, currently taking seven years on average.
Lupus Canada’s mission is dedicated to advancing research, championing advocacy, fostering public awareness and providing lupus-related education. This mission enables it to effect meaningful change and make a tangible impact on those living with lupus and their families, caregivers and loved ones.
I am proud that, through the Community Services Recovery Fund, this government has provided over $100,000 to support Lupus Canada to adapt its operations so that it can continue its important mission. I thank Lupus Canada for all that it does.
