Who We Center

Rare disease patients — More than 7,000 rare diseases affect over 30 million people in the United States. Only about 5% have an FDA-approved treatment. Ill Boss was founded by a rare disease patient.

Women with chronic illness — An estimated 78–80% of people living with autoimmune disease are women. On average, it takes 4.5 years and four different doctors to reach a diagnosis.

Black women with chronic illness — Black women are 2 to 3 times more likely than white women to develop lupus, and tend to have more severe cases. Black women with lupus die up to 13 years earlier than non-Hispanic white women with lupus. Medical racism is measurable, and it is foundational to why this organization exists.
