Mission[edit | edit source]
Our mission is to raise Global Awareness and Education for Complex Immunolgical and Neurological Diseases (CIND) including the following:
- Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)
- Chronic lyme disease (CLD)
- Gulf War Illness (GWI)
- Fibromyalgia (FMS)
- Mold illness/Biotoxin illness
- Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS)
We believe that raising awareness of neuroimmune diseases will increase funding for research, provide for better treatment, and eventually lead to a CURE for these debilitating, disabling and often “invisible” diseases.[1]
