Chronic Disease Coalition

The Chronic Disease Coalition is a nonprofit organization that raises awareness for chronic illnesses, advocates for patients who suffer with these illnesses, and helps patients take action.
I joined the Chronic Disease Coalition as a Volunteer Patient Ambassador in June 2018 to help chronic illness sufferers and to connect with more people in hopes to increase my ability to help the public.
I have worked with others to have July 10th designated as Chronic Disease Awareness Day in South Carolina by Governor Henry McMaster as well as other awareness projects.

Samantha Bowick holding a sign that reads: I advocate because: Nobody should have to go 7-10 years without a proper diagnosis Nobody should be told to get pregnant or have a hysterectomy to decrease their symptoms or "cure" endometriosis. Bodies should not be cut over and over because doctors don't want to admit they don't know how to treat endometriosis and don't want to send patients to an endometriosis specialist Nobody should feel alone in their diagnosis There should be more public health awareness Name: Samantha Bowick State: South Carolina Diseases: Endometriosis and Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
