Description
The National Rosacea Society is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve the lives of people with rosacea by raising awareness on this widespread but little-known disorder. The Society provides information to help rosacea patients better understand their disorder and more effectively manage its signs and symptoms. The organization also administers a research grants program to encourage and support scientific investigation into the potential causes and other key aspects of rosacea that may lead to improvements in its treatment and potential prevention or cure.
