Children's Lyme

The Children’s Lyme Disease Network (CLDN), established in May 2011, is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to raising awareness about Lyme Disease and other tick-borne infections affecting children. Driven by parents and caregivers who have faced the challenges of obtaining accurate diagnoses and effective treatments, CLDN serves as a vital resource for families navigating this complex health crisis. The network's mission includes educational outreach for parents, healthcare providers, and organizations that interact with children, striving to inform them about the risks and symptoms of Lyme Disease.

CLDN provides comprehensive resources such as infographics, FAQs, and a dedicated blog to help families understand the disease and share their experiences. Additionally, the network emphasizes the importance of early detection and appropriate care for afflicted children, advocating for better medical support and research funding. By fostering a supportive community, CLDN empowers parents and caregivers to take action, ensuring every child has the opportunity to enjoy a healthy, active life free from the devastating effects of tick-borne illnesses.
