Sjögren’s Foundation

The Sjögren's Foundation is proud to be the only national non-profit organization focused on increasing research, education and awareness for Sjögren's. Founded in 1983 by Elaine Harris, a frustrated patient, the Foundation's mission was simple: help patients cope with their Sjögren's, increase awareness, and support research efforts. Today, our mission has remained the same while we have grown into a multi-faceted organization that has expanded its outreach, increased its funding for research, education, and awareness of this debilitating disease. In addition, the Foundation is an internationally recognized organization shaping the industry in terms of research, education, patient care, advocacy and new therapies. As the Foundation continues to expand, our commitment to patients will never change; they are the reason we were founded and the reason we continue to operate today.
