Massachusetts Sickle Cell Association

Our Story

Founded in 1995 by Reverend Ronald Stephenson, the Massachusetts Sickle Cell Association was born from a deep need for awareness and support for families affected by sickle cell disease (SCD). Inspired by the words of a patient who felt neglected, the organization emerged from a collaboration of patients, families, and healthcare professionals at Brigham & Women’s Hospital and Boston Medical Center. The mission was clear: to promote awareness and provide essential support services free of charge.

Our Impact
