The Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research knows that patients and their loved ones often have to search desperately for answers after receiving a diagnosis of sarcoidosis. Like many other rare diseases, there can be a lack of accurate and up-to-date information available.

FSR has always prioritized filling that gap. Founded by a patient and her husband, our organization itself was a result of the lack of answers about sarcoidosis. Our Patient Resources and Education Program (PREP) has already helped countless patients find answers and receive the help they need. As part of this patient-centered program, we hold numerous patient education conferences across the U.S. each year, host online webinars led by experts in the field, and provide educational materials- both online and hard copy- to thousands of individuals worldwide. In addition, our resources can help patients find specialists in their region who are knowledgeable on sarcoidosis, as well as connect with local support groups.

This  page is meant to be a dynamic resource for patients, caretakers, and even physicians who are looking for information on the disease itself, as well as treatment options, health insurance, disability or veterans benefits, and more. This page will be rapidly expanding and evolving so be sure to check back for new material!
