About IACFS/ME

Mission Statement

The mission of the IACFS/ME is to promote, stimulate and coordinate the exchange of ideas related to CFS, ME and fibromyalgia (FM) research, patient care and treatment.

In addition, the IACFS/ME periodically reviews the current research and treatment literature and media reports for the benefit of scientists, clinicians and patients.  The IACFS/ME also conducts and/or participates in local, national, and international scientific conferences. This is to promote and evaluate new research, and to encourage future research ventures and cooperative activities. All this is carried out as part of the effort to advance scientific and clinical knowledge of these illnesses.

The IACFS/ME shall at all times be organized and operated exclusively for charitable, scientific, literary or educational purposes as a qualified exempt organization described under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue code of 1986 and the regulations promulgated thereunder as they may now exist or as they may be hereafter amended.
