About this Group

The ILC Charitable Foundation (TheILC) welcomes everyone who suspects they have or has been diagnosed with EDS, HSD and related conditions, and their family members. TheILC is a registered national charity in Canada and operates as a volunteer organization.

We host healthcare education and patient learning conferences and webinars where multidisciplinary EDS and HSD experts and other knowledgeable speakers present on their respective areas of expertise. When possible, in-person social get-togethers are supported among members as well as other opportunities to connect through social network channels when health challenges make it difficult to travel to meetings.

TheILC membership program is free for ‘Individuals and Carers’ and ‘Affiliate’ membership for clinicians, researchers and collaborative partners. Membership provides an opportunity for people with lived experience to provide meaningful education about EDS and HSD. TheILC member support program includes helping individuals navigate the healthcare system and social services that they may not be aware are available to them. TheILC also raises funds to support research to find cures through an EDS and HSD dedicated research program, and advocates through government relations to address the inequities of care. If you are a Canadian and would like to become a member, please visit us at https://www.TheILCFoundation.org or email [email protected].
