Consumer Patient Organizations

Consumer or patient organizations are groups formed by individuals affected by a specific health condition or disease. They aim to provide support, share information, and advocate for better healthcare, policies, and research related to their condition. These organizations empower patients by giving them a collective voice to influence healthcare decisions, improve treatment options, and increase public awareness. They often offer resources, education, and community connections, helping patients navigate their health journey while working to improve overall standards of care and research outcomes.
