NEA is the driving force for an eczema community fueled by knowledge, strengthened through collective action and propelled by the promise for a better future.

The National Eczema Association (NEA) is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and a prestigious Scientific Advisory Council. Founded in 1988, NEA is widely regarded as the largest, most influential and most representative eczema patient advocacy organization in the United States.

Eczema doesn't come with a roadmap. Whether you're newly diagnosed, navigating a flare or struggling to find a provider, knowing where to turn can make a difference.

That's why we created Eczema Connect. 💙

This free service connects you with a real person at the National Eczema Association who can listen, help you explore trusted resources and find information relevant to your needs.

You don't have to navigate eczema alone.

Eczema doesn’t look the same on every skin tone.

While eczema may appear red on lighter skin, it can look purple, brown, gray or ashen on darker skin tones. Yet many eczema resources still don’t reflect that full range.

Your voice can help shape policies that impact the eczema community. 💙

During NEA’s Virtual Hill Day, NEA Ambassador Diane advocated for the Safe Step Act, legislation that would establish an exceptions process for certain step therapy protocols that can require patients to try alternative treatments before receiving coverage for the treatment prescribed by their healthcare provider.

Following Virtual Hill Day, Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania signed on as a cosponsor of the Safe Step Act.

Hear from Diane about why she advocates for better access to care for people living with eczema.

This , your legislators need to hear from you, too. Make your voice heard and take action: https://nationaleczema.quorum.us/campaign/170853/

with Sanofi US and Regeneron.

For Amy and her daughter Ella, eczema has been a family journey.

Together, they navigated Ella’s symptoms of itchy skin and rashes that made some day-to-day moments feel overwhelming. Through it all, they learned how support from family, friends and each other can make a big difference.

Since 2022, NEA Ambassadors have come together for Virtual Hill Day to bring the experiences and priorities of the eczema community directly to congressional offices.

This year, 30 NEA Ambassadors representing 18 states participated in 61 meetings, sharing the realities of living with eczema and advocating for better access to care and continued federal investment in eczema research.

We were especially grateful to U.S. Rep. Gabe Amo of Rhode Island for joining one of our meetings and taking the time to hear directly from NEA Ambassadors about the experiences and priorities of the eczema community.

Thank you to our Ambassadors for using their voices to move eczema advocacy forward, on Hill Day and throughout the year. 💙

Help us show what eczema really looks like.

Eczema can show up differently on every person; across skin tones, parts of the body and types of eczema. We’re collecting photos from our community to make the NEA Eczema Visual Guide more representative of those experiences.

Sharing your photo can help others recognize eczema and see skin that looks like theirs reflected in our resources.
