Immune Deficiency Foundation
The Immune Deficiency Foundation is the national patient organization dedicated to improving the diagnosis, treatment and quality of life of persons with primary immunodeficiency diseases through advocacy, education and research.
Since 1980, IDF has provided accurate and timely information for the nearly quarter-million Americans who have been diagnosed with a primary immunodeficiency disease. Governed by a Board of Trustees - and supported by a Medical Advisory Committee comprised of some of the world's leading clinical immunologists, as well as hundreds of grassroots volunteers and a compassionate, professional staff - IDF has provided individuals and their families with vital knowledge and made tremendous strides in:
- Helping the patient and medical community gain a broader understanding of primary immunodeficiency diseases through education and outreach efforts;
- Promoting, participating, and funding research that has helped characterize primary immunodeficiency diseases and given patients and physicians substantially improved treatment options;
- Addressing patient needs through public policy programs by focusing on issues such as insurance reimbursement, patient confidentiality, ensuring the safety and availability of immune globulin therapy, and maintaining and enhancing patient access to treatment options.
