The Endometriosis
Association is an independent self-help organization of women with
endometriosis, doctors, and others interested in the disease, and a recognized
authority in its field. Its goal is to find a cure for the disease as well
as to provide education, support, and research.
As part of its research program, the Association funds research for the
causes of endometriosis, including a special program at Dartmouth
Medical School,
and have funded and assisted a number of researchers throughout the world.
It also maintains a data research registry and continues study of the
relationship between dioxin and endometriosis, a relationship the
Association discovered.
The Endometriosis Foundation has a network of chapters, groups,
sponsors, and women with endometriosis in 66 countries throughout the
world. Its educational materials are available in 28 different languages,
and provide invaluable information and guidance to help enable women with
endometriosis and their families to make informed decisions about their
health needs.
The attorneys of Hurtado, S.C. have provided pro-bono legal services to
the Endometriosis Association, including advice regarding its
not-for-profit organizational structure, and participating fund-raising
activities, as well as service on its Board of directors.
