About Us

Atlantic Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Society is a peer support network based in Halifax, Nova Scotia.  Formed in 2014 by Tanya Brown (President) and Nicki Himmelman (Vice-President), the Society provides support, awareness, resources, and access to the most recent information and research to patients, caregivers, medical professionals, and the general public.

​

Moving forward, we hope to see a day when all Atlantic Canadians living with EDS/HSD are able to receive a timely diagnosis and access to the support and services they need to live the best life they can.
