Mission: www.EDSawareness.com is a new online resource for the Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome community. We provide informative resources for individuals suffering with EDS and their caregiver networks. The mission of EDS Awareness is to ensure greater understanding of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, both in the general public and within the medical community. Driven by participation and shared learning, we hope to improve the quality of life for those afflicted with EDS – and those who care for them. Website content is presented “by EDSers, for EDSers” – therefore, it is driven by user participation and learning – for the benefit of all EDSers. The greater the participation, the greater the value to the whole community.
