In Illinois, more than 30,000 people suffer from kidney failure. To highlight their needs, organizations from across the state came together to form the Illinois Kidney Care Alliance (IKCA). IKCA is a coalition of health advocates and professionals, community groups, providers, and businesses focused on raising awareness of the challenges faced by people who suffer from kidney failure and of the needs of their families.

IKCA is proud to welcome the National Kidney Foundation of Illinois (NKFI) as a member of the coalition. NKFI partners with community leaders, healthcare professionals, and civic-minded corporate partners to improve the lives of patients and families affected by kidney disease. NKFI proudly advocates for improvements in healthcare policy and provides kidney patients and their families with valuable resources and information.

IKCA continues to support and promote public policy that protects those suffering from kidney failure, ensuring that patients’ needs come first. With NKFI as a member, our voice will grow stronger. For more information, follow us on Twitter, like us on Facebook, or visit our website.
