🩺 July 10 is 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 — a time to raise awareness of the millions of people living with long-term health conditions and the challenges they and their families face every day.

Chronic diseases can affect every part of life, including 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵, 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸, 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀, 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, and 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆.

At 𝗘𝗢𝗖 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗸, we believe strong communities are built by helping people access the support, resources, and opportunities that make daily life 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗿, 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝗿, and 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲.

Today, we stand with individuals and families impacted by chronic disease and support efforts to promote 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲, and 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴.
