795 signatures strong — and we’re not stopping there!

Cayenne Wellness Center is advocating for $15 million in state funding over 3 years to maintain and expand vital services for those affected by sickle cell disease in California.

These services provide crucial support in mental health care, transportation, childcare/respite, housing and utilities, education, and care connection.

Help us reach our goal of 1,000 signatures by June 9, 2026. Sickle cell disease is still underfunded, and our community deserves better resources. Your voice is powerful.
