About Us

crowed at tableMEAction Colorado got started in February 2018,  a small but growing grassroots group now numbering over 100. We are dedicated to advocacy for the tens of thousands of Coloradans affected by Myalgic Encephalomyelitis*.

On May 12, 2018 we held our first public event when we joined thousands worldwide to make ME/CFS Awareness Day  at the Colorado State Capitol.  Following on the momentum from May 12th, we began reaching out to members of congress to raise awareness of ME and of our goals;

 

  • Raise awareness of this little understood disease that is a lot more common than you think.

  • Work for funding for research to find diagnostic tests, treatment and a cure.
