My Nonprofit Reviews

DES Action was a lifeline for me when I first discovered my DES exposure as a young adult, and since that time it has provided information and support through the many stages of my life that have been affected by my DES exposure. It continues to be an excellent source of medical and legal information for me and my children. In addition, through the list-serve it supports, DES Action provides access to a community of other DES-exposed individuals who can share their questions, concerns, and support for each other. Bravo DES Action!

DES Action has always been there when I needed support, from the time I found out I was DES-exposed, through cancer fears, pregnancy challenges, and premature deliveries, to the present, by keeping us informed of continuing impacts on multiple exposed generations and continuously calling for more research.

As a DES Daughter born in to an ethnic family, at home I heard "Don't tell anyone! No one will want to marry you!" DES Action and its members in my hometown were a lifeline for me in those early days as a source of invaluable information and support. I am proudly serving on the Board today as a way to give back a little of what I have been given from this transformational organization.
