About Us – Old

Gastroparesis, Demand Better, Expect More!


Mission:  to empower the gastroparesis community by providing information and education, hosting support groups and programs, and leading awareness and advocacy efforts.  We seek to unite those with gastroparesis to discuss our vision, goals, needs, services, and resources and endeavor to make a difference for our GP community by educating patients, providers, legislators, researchers, and the general public; spreading awareness of our disease; pursuing beneficial changes in legislation and policies; engaging in fundraising efforts; supporting new treatment options and research; and working toward solutions to our most pressing issues. 

We created this website to provide the public with additional information regarding gastroparesis. One of our main goals is to connect users with our Facebook advocacy group, “Gastroparesis: Fighting for Change,” so that, together, we can usher in the changes we seek.

You can find links to our Community Page and our Advocacy Group on our Resources Tab.
