About - Lupus Canada

A Message of Welcome from the Executive Director

Welcome to our website!

Lupus Canada and our provincial Member Organizations and Divisions are working together to improve the lives of the over 1:1000 Canadians living with lupus. We believe this website is an invaluable and comprehensive resource for people living with lupus, their family, friends, and caregivers.

We work together across the country with one prevailing purpose… improving the lives of people living with lupus. While we continue to work to support our vision of Life without lupus, we want to be sure that we are also focusing on what we can do today to ensure people are living well with lupus.

At Lupus Canada we continue to focus our resources in several key areas – Advocacy, Public Awareness and Research. Through the support of our volunteers and Walk for Lupus, our national annual fundraising campaign, we continue to enhance our support of people living with lupus in those key areas.

Please take the time to look around this site and come back for a visit regularly as we’ll continually be updating it with news of events and activities happening across the country, sharing research and advocacy updates, offering volunteer opportunities and much, much more!

Feel free to let us know your thoughts about the site… what you like, what you’d like to see added and how we can continue to help you live well with lupus. We are at your service!

With your continued support we are working together to conquer lupus!
