Status C Unknown

Mission:

Founded in 2005, Status C Unknown (SCU) is a non-profit organization. SCU‘s mission is to educate those impacted by HCV about treatment options and promote enhanced HCV awareness among the general public, health care communities, and policy-makers. Our strategic focus is prevention education, support and advocacy. Program staff is dedicated to the wellness of those affected by HCV with disease management assistance. We are a multi-program organization with a primary focus on legislative activities and programs that meet the needs of the hepatitis C community both statewide and nationally.

Program Highlights/Accomplishments:

Status C Unknown advocacy efforts with stakeholders and partners have been effective in the formation of the New York State Hepatitis C Advisory Council and a hepatitis C specific appropriation in the NYS General Budget specifically for the development of a comprehensive hepatitis C plan. Status C Unknown has successfully developed and is continuing to develop NYS Hepatitis C Regional Task Forces that will not only provide better access to care and treatment for those affected by the hepatitis C virus but will also broaden the hepatitis C advocacy base in NYS.
