Parents with children with rare diseases suffer a lot because they don't get any answers and help for their children. Every parent wish to have an answer on the question what will be the possible future of my child

As a rare disease advocate I see how patients in the US are receiving life saving treatments for their rare disease, but patients in Ghana and other African countries cannot access them. This is so incredibly sad for patient families.

As a mother and a primary care giver of a child with a rare genetic condition signing this petition may help push for better healthcare policies, insurance coverage, funding for medical research, inclusion and equity for families and people living with rare conditions.

Rare disease patients in Ghana often struggle to access proper diagnosis, treatment, and specialized care. A national strategy would ensure better healthcare infrastructure, funding, and medical expertise for those affected.

Petitioning can help raise awareness about Rare diseases, their impacts on patients and families and the need for support and resources.

Help us to strengthen citizen participation. We want to support your petition to get the attention it deserves while remaining an independent platform.
