PHILADELPHIA — Members of the psoriatic disease community recently gathered at the Philadelphia Zoo to raise funds that will be used to support patients through research and advocacy.

The National Psoriasis Foundation’s Take ACTION Philadelphia event was attended by local and national supporters, including Healio Dermatology Chief Medical Editor Joel M. Gelfand, MD, MSCE. In this video, Gelfand shares his perspective on the importance of advocacy.

“I’m very passionate about psoriatic disease,” he said. “What a great way for us as physicians and clinicians in dermatology to give back to our patients, raise money, raise awareness for this disease and help everyone’s lives get better over time.”

The fundraising page for the Take ACTION Philadelphia event will remain open through the end of the year. For more information, click here.
