Welcome to Scleroderma Queensland
Scleroderma Queensland supports people affected by scleroderma, along with their families, friends and carers, through friendship, education, advocacy and community connection. We raise awareness, share information and support, and raise much-needed funds for research as we work towards better outcomes and, ultimately, a world free from scleroderma.
For almost 40 years, our not-for-profit organisation has brought together individuals, partners, parents, children, carers and warriors to share experiences, stories and practical support. We are a partner of Rare Voices Australia and invite you to join the Scleroderma Queensland community.
