Sickle Cell Partners of the Carolinas

Sickle Cell Partners of the Carolinas was formed in January of 2009. At that time, patients, families and members of the medical community came together informally to meet and discuss ideas involving care and support in the Sickle Cell community. From those conversations, Sickle Cell Partners of the Carolinas came into being and is an organization that consists of patients of all ages; families; caregivers; healthcare providers; social workers and an at large community that cares deeply about those affected by Sickle Cell Disease. The original founders of the organization included patients, families and members of the medical community. The need for a support group was expressed to engage patients and families affected by Sickle Cell Anemia, Sickle Cell Trait, and Thalassemia. Official website
