When your immune system turns against you, it can feel like an uphill battle. But you don’t have to fight it alone.
Immune-related conditions, which include autoimmune diseases, allergies, and immune deficiencies, can present complex health challenges. NOWINCLUDED offers a supportive community, accessible information, and resources to help you understand and navigate these conditions.
Jometra didn’t let lupus define her. Now, as a co-chair of the African American Health Coalition, she inspires others by raising awareness of lupus in her community.
When it comes to our health, these six affect our community the most:
Learn what Lupus is and how it impacts pregnancy in Black women.
Understand the difference between type 1 and 2 diabetes and how both can be managed.
We are affected by RA at higher rates than other groups, often with more severe symptoms and challenges getting the right care. Learn more about arthritis in the Black community.
Learn about UC, what causes it, how it’s treated, and how to manage day-to-day activities with this constant companion.
Learn MS affects our communities and what you can do to live a full life with the condition.
When we are not included in clinical research, we can’t be sure if a treatment will work just as well or be just as safe for us as it will for other races.

Learning more about clinical research can be a critical step in improving health outcomes for future generations.
If you still have questions, you are not alone.
