Emergency Financial Assistance Program: Through the support of local foundations and individual contributions, we offer emergency financial help to individuals diagnosed with lupus. Help is available for prescription medication, office visits and other needs that require a one-time financial payment. Email the application, Colorado ID, proof of lupus diagnosis, and invoice/estimate for your request to info@lupuscolorado.org. The Emergency Assistance Application can be found HERE.

Support Services: Support groups are facilitated by people who have lupus and have a positive approach to dealing with the challenges of living with lupus. Informal telephone support is available to people who want to speak with another person who has experienced similar situations and issues in living with lupus.

Educational Programs: Programs specifically designed to meet the needs of people with lupus, their family and friends, the general public, and other health care providers. Topics are based on requests from members and participants.

Resource Directory: The Lupus Colorado Resource Directory is packed full for information on where to find help. From patient advocacy, to caregiver assistance, from alternative medicine to housecleaning help, it’s all here!
