What is the GOAL Project?

Georgians Organized Against Lupus (GOAL) is a project led by the Division of Rheumatology at Emory University School of Medicine.

The GOAL project aims to help address lupus by learning from people living with it. We strive to represent ALL Georgians.

This is a multi-year journey! We have been doing this for 10+ years!

We appreciate your consideration and commitment to studying lupus!

Why do we need your help?

Your unique experiences living with lupus are tremendously valuable. You might wonder what real impact you may have by becoming a GOAL member. Through each and every person’s story, we can identify the sources of health disparities and the needs of different lupus patients. This information is vital not just for medical researchers; it may also help policymakers to improve the health care system and the services for those with lupus. Ultimately, the information obtained through GOAL could be used to make treatments and services more tailored, accessible, and affordable.

What is involved?

Even if you have not been experiencing any symptoms lately, we would still like to encourage you to consider participating. We will ask you questions about your health and your experiences living with lupus through easy-to-complete surveys just a few times a year at most. Your participation is voluntarybut just a little bit of your time could have a huge impact!

How can you participate?
