Throughout my chronic illness journey I have found many helpful organizations, communities, and agencies that have assisted me in my quest toward improved health. I would like to share with you the resources I know to be helpful. If you would like to see anything added please let me know in the comments and I will gladly add them. Since I am located in Indiana, USA, the resources listed will be for residents of the United States. If you live elsewhere and know of helpful resources in your area feel free to let me know and I will include them.
