Sickle Cell Awareness Month!

Sickle Cell Awareness Month!

September is #SickleCellAwarenessMonth! Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), an inherited blood disorder that is more prevalent in individuals of African and Latinx/Hispanic descent, affects approximately 100,000 Americans. People living with SCD experience acute pain crises, dangerous infections, and other serious health problems that can damage every organ in the body. In honor of #SickleCellAwarenessMonth, join @NICHQ in bringing attention to the unique experiences and challenges of people living with SCD and the variety of resources available to healthcare professionals.
