WASHINGTON, April 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ This May for Lupus Awareness Month, the Lupus Foundation of America will continue its effort to
Make Lupus Visible, encouraging lupus warriors, family members and friends to raise awareness for the often invisible and devastating disease while also raising funds to support lupus research, education programs and support services.
Over half of Americans (63%) have never heard of or know little or nothing about lupus, underscoring the urgent need to raise awareness of the disease s brutal impact on every part of a person s life. Because many symptoms and effects of lupus are invisible, it can often leave those living with lupus feeling misunderstood and isolated.
