RSDSA promotes public and professional awareness of CRPS, a neuroinflamtory syndrome characterized by severe and persistent pain that can be very debilitating and a life changer. We are charged with educating those afflicted with the syndrome, their families, friends, insurance and healthcare providers about the potentially disabling pain it causes and how to treat it.
We have teams in the Achilles Walk for Hope & Possibility to encourage those who are disabled to participate. Our participation highlights the disabling part of the syndrome and offers hope to those who suffer from it.
The more people who are involved, the greater the reach of our message. Your contribution supports RSDSA’s mission.

100% of funds raised from the Achilles walk for RSDSA will help fulfill RSDSA’s mission to promote greater awareness and earlier recognition of CRPS, fund critical research, and provide support to people with CRPS and their loved ones.
