HELP END THE TSW CRISIS!
TSW is a preventable disease, yet doctors, drug manufacturers, and regulatory bodies seem unable (or unwilling) to act.
Right now, as many as 71 million people are thought to be trapped in topical steroid addiction — destined to endure a hellish withdrawal.
That's why we're asking you to help us push for TSW Awareness days across the US and around the globe, so the world finally takes notice.
Help us fight for recognition, better care and proper research — and let's prevent others from falling victim to this devastating illness.

Shine a light on families who are under pressure from child protective services to medicate their kids with topical steroids, and help to pave the way to better care for all.
Get the facts in front of policy makers who have the power to turn the tables on TSW by challenging the lack of accountability and recognition within the medical establishment.
Help create a world where topical steroid withdrawal is known by the general public, so they are aware of the risks and able to make informed decisions about treatment.
