RMHBDA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2000 and is a chartered chapter of the National Bleeding Disorders Foundation (formerly the National Hemophilia Foundation). Our mission is to improve the quality of care and life for persons with inherited bleeding disorders, including hemophilia and von Willebrand Disease through providing and building community, education, peer support, medical resources, advocacy, and referral. RMHBDA accomplishes much of this through our programs and events throughout each year, enlisting members to help build and maintain our community while gaining the mutual support we all need, all while learning and having fun.
