About the Pulmonary Hypertension Association (PHA)

Founded in 1987, the Pulmonary Hypertension Association's (PHA) mission is to seek a cure for pulmonary hypertension and provide hope for the pulmonary hypertension community through support, education, advocacy, and awareness. Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) is a simplified name for a complex health problem - continuous high blood pressure in the lungs, resulting in an enlarged heart. PHA aids patients and their families in coping with this devastating disease; provides networking opportunities to end the "aloneness" of a rare illness; assists in locating doctors and medical facilities with expertise in treating pulmonary hypertension; forms support groups to allow patients to network and open contact with others; and publishes a newsletter, Pathlight, that builds a sense of community.
