What is lupus?
Lupus is a chronic (long-term) disease that can cause inflammation and pain in any part of your body. It’s an autoimmune disease, which means that your immune system — the body system that usually fights infections — attacks healthy tissue instead.
Lupus most commonly affects your: 
-Skin
-Joints
-Internal organs, like your kidneys and heart

Because lupus affects many parts of the body, it can cause a lot of different symptoms.  To learn more about Lupus you can go to:  https://www.lupus.org/

The goals for our organization is to assist and service the 13,500+ Nevadans struggling with Lupus. This include having monthly support group meetings by gathering together as a family and discuss what we can do together to help each other.
