NASHVILLE, Tenn. - eMusicWire -- We CU, a U.S.-based nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering and improving the lives of individuals affected by chronic urticaria (CU), is proud to announce its official launch. CU, characterized by persistent hives and itching, significantly impacts the quality of life of those impacted and their families. One in four Americans will have hives in their lifetime; 1.7 million Americans live with a chronic form of this condition.
We CU aims to be a comprehensive resource for the CU community, offering support through awareness, education, advocacy, and research participation opportunities. The organization is committed to ensuring that patient perspectives shape innovation and treatment, fostering a collaborative environment between patients, researchers, and healthcare professionals.
"Chronic urticaria is more than just a physical condition—it affects every aspect of life, from emotional well-being to daily routines," said Kristen Willard, Acting Executive Director of We CU and a person impacted by urticaria for 30 years. "Our goal is to build a community where individuals feel supported, informed, and empowered to take control of their journey with CU."
