Event Hosted By
Lupus Society
The Lupus Society is the only BC organization dedicated solely to providing lupus education and support services. We are committed to sponsoring research and providing hope for those affected by lupus.

Founded in 1977 as a grass roots organization made up of a handful of volunteers, the Lupus Society is now incorporated province-wide with members residing across the country and internationally, as far away as Singapore and Hong Kong. An extensive volunteer network of 8 support groups and 33 provincial contacts, we provide a wide variety of services which link the Lupus Society to thousands of people touched by lupus.

The Lupus Society sponsors and assists in the development of location support groups and provides access to literature on lupus and coping with this chronic illness. The Society also organizes education meetings and seminars where medical and professional resource people discuss all aspects of lupus including new trends in research.
