SCDAA Nevada Chapter
In a one of a kind partnership, Dreamsickle Kids and JET Foundation has come together to open the first SCD community center and a resource center like no other. Together our two organizations are able to provide a large amount of resources to not just the SCD or Rare Disease population but to the entire demographic of underserved and disadvantaged in Las Vegas. We look forward to welcoming the community of Nevada to enjoy the benefits and magic that is the Aspiration Center.

SCD is a group of inherited red blood cell disorders. Healthy red blood cells are round, and they move through small blood vessels to carry oxygen to all parts of the body. In someone who has SCD, the red blood cells become hard and sticky and look like a C-shaped farm tool called a “sickle”. The sickle cells die early, which causes a constant shortage of red blood cells. Also, when they travel through small blood vessels, they get stuck and clog the blood flow. This can cause pain and other serious problems such infection, acute chest syndrome and stroke.
