Share your story with the Foundation’s 2023 #ThisIsSjögrens campaign!

April is Sjögren’s Awareness Month. Each year the Foundation works to keep the spirit of national awareness alive with our #ThisIsSjögrens campaign by highlighting you and sharing the stories of real patients.

Every day in April, we will highlight a different patient and show a glimpse into their life with Sjögren’s. This year, we will also be using this camping to give a unique, “patient to patient” viewpoint and dive deeper into various Sjögren’s topic with advice directly from other patients. We hope these stories will help create a better understanding of this complex disease and let all patients know that there is support through this community.

If you would like your story to be featured in this year's campaign, please fill out the form below. 30 stories will be featured in this year's April campaign and all stories submitted are eligible to be featured by the Foundation.

Thank you for sharing your story to help shine light on the diversity of the millions of patients living with Sjögren’s.

Are you interested in submitting a Patient to Patient story?

Patient to Patient stories help provide insight into a specific Sjögren’s topic and share information to help other patients going through a similar situation. Topics can range from a symptom (like dry eyes, fatigue, or joint pain) to various situations (like being a student, filing for disability, dating, or working while living with the Sjögren’s). If you would like to provide a more in-depth look into a specific topic, please answer the following questions below.
