Sickle Cell and Mental Health can affect people of any race, religion, income and gender. 1 in every 10 Americans have the Sickle Cell Trait and 1 in 500 has Sickle Cell. Mental Health is a condition that disrupts a person’s thinking, feeling, mood and the ability to relate to others and their daily functions. 1 in 5 adults experience Mental health issues. 1 in 10 young people experience a period of major depression. Comprehensive care and therapies are imperative for individuals with Sickle Cell and Mental Health.

Join us as we celebrate, honor and raise funds for Sickle Cell & Mental Health Awareness. Many of us know at least one person who is affected by one of the above diseases.
