Advocacy (UpEndo)

The Endometriosis Foundation of America (EndoFound) strives to increase disease recognition, provide advocacy, facilitate expert surgical training, and fund landmark endometriosis research. Engaged in a robust campaign to inform the medical community and the public, EndoFound emphasizes the critical importance of early diagnosis and effective intervention while simultaneously providing education to the next generation of medical professionals and their patients.

EndoFound's UpEndo Coalition is a powerful voice for everyone touched by endometriosis. EndoFound's advocacy team is committed to speaking up about the policy needs of the endometriosis community. It plays a critical role in helping to secure federal funding for endometriosis research and education. EndoFound is the voice on Capitol Hill, in statehouses around the country, and with federal agencies for those with endometriosis.
