Mission
Dealing with chronic kidney disease (CKD) can be exhausting, both physically and emotionally. The Center for Disease Control states that an estimated 30 million US adults have CKDor more than 15% of the US adult population. Renal Support Network (RSN) strives to ensure people who have kidney disease have access to quality of care, dialysis treatment choices, kidney transplantation and provide the patients perspective on regulatory and legislative issues.

RSN has a large social media and mailing list following who seek education and hope.
