CFIDS Association, Inc.
Mission:
Since its founding in 1987, the Association has invested over $17 million in support of its mission: to conquer CFIDS.
CFIDS is a serious and complex illness that affects over one million U.S. adults, more than multiple sclerosis (MS), AIDS or lung cancer. The illness is characterized by incapacitating fatigue, problems with information processing and memory, flu-like symptoms, pain in the joints and muscles, dizziness, nausea, sleep disorders, severe headache and numerous other symptoms.
The Association is proud to lead national efforts in CFIDS awareness and education, public policy and research and we are grateful to those who support our work.
