Lung health is an incredibly important and personal cause for me. Please help me support NTM as they support and champion patients who have NTM and their families.
NTM Info & Research started in 2003 in Miami-Dade County. It was founded by a patient and resident who, by her own experience, had the vision to connect and educate people with this rare pulmonary disease. Florida has the second-highest number of cases of pulmonary NTM disease in the country. There are an estimated 27,001 cases in Florida with an annual cost of $243,009,000. Nationally, there are more than 220,000 cases. Currently, we have three support groups for Florida patients.
