Puerto Rico Coalition for Asthma & Other Chronic Respiratory Conditions

The Puerto Rico Coalition for Asthma and other chronic respiratory conditions is a non-profit organization founded in 1991 to educate, empowered and protect patients with respiratory conditions. It has worked with other groups to create a law to protect the right for students with asthma to use their medications in school, by developing a protocol. Also, it has worked with the PR Lung Association in patient education matters and activities. The Coalition delivers CME programs for health professionals as well as education to community-based groups in areas of low income and disparities for kids.
