GASCDO Represents:
- Patients with SCD
- Parents, carriers, and families of patients with SCD
- National and regional SCD Organizations
Health care professionals
- Educators and advocates
- Community representatives
- Others not limited to individuals, organizations, institutions (including centers of excellence, research and care provider organizations); and the industry.
