About Us

The National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) is a forward-looking, patient-centric nonprofit organization relentlessly driving efforts to cure psoriatic disease and improve the lives of those affected.

About the National Psoriasis Foundation

NPF is the leading nonprofit psoriatic disease research organization in the world and represents more than 8 million people in the U.S. who live with psoriatic disease through bold advocacy, transformative support programs, and world class education.

NPF is led by people who understand the challenges of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis firsthand, and the organization is informed by the brightest minds in dermatology and rheumatology from across the country.

NPF’s current five-year strategic plan (below), reflects our commitment to tackling large challenges: accelerating discovery, driving collaboration across sectors, and building a future free from the burdens of chronic disease.
