It’s crucial that our voices are heard and that we advocate for the health and well-being of those living with scleroderma in Nova Scotia.

[Scleroderma Atlantic @SclerodermaATL]

As the Nova Scotia provincial election approaches, Scleroderma Atlantic is taking action to support those living with scleroderma and Raynaud’s Phenomenon. We have reached out to party leaders, urging them to include sildenafil (Viagra) in the provincial formulary.

[Scleroderma Atlantic @SclerodermaATL]

If a candidate knocks on your door during this election season, we encourage you to ask them if they would support adding sildenafil to the provincial formulary.

If you’re enthusiastic about advocacy and community engagement, we want to hear from you! Join us in our mission to provide support and raise awareness in Atlantic Canada.

💙 Let’s reach out to those who may be silently facing these challenges. Offer a listening ear, show kindness, and validate their experiences. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in their lives!

[Scleroderma Atlantic @SclerodermaATL]

Just because an illness isn't visible doesn't mean it’s any less real or impactful. Scleroderma, often unseen by the naked eye, can affect many aspects of a person's life, from physical symptoms to emotional well-being.
