MISSION STATEMENT
MISSION STATEMENT
The Chronic Illness Advocacy & Awareness Group, Inc. (CIAAG) is a national non-profit organization focused on the public, private-partnership initiatives within the healthcare sector. The healthcare system is changing rapidly in response to societal and political pressures. The United States has invested billions of dollars into the restructuring of the healthcare system with a large investment into public, private-partnerships to help create and implement strategies that will help solve the nation's most complex public health issues and concerns. As the nation moves forward with new innovative treatments and technologies, we must ensure patient rights and civil liberties are preserved.
CIAAG acts as a liaison between the public, lawmakers, and other stakeholders to facilitate productive discussions and provide recommendations to address the knowledge gaps and inconsistencies within the public, private-partnerships that are influencing access to care and healthcare as a whole in America.
We consult with the public and private sector, providing both professional expertise and lived experience regarding the issues presented by the use of public, private-partnerships to develop solutions to complex societal problems that arose via the use of pragmatic trials and the biopsychosocial approach to managing population health.

THE LEADERS OF A NEW INDUSTRY
THE LEADERS OF A NEW INDUSTRY
Through identification and recognition of the current issues surrounding the healthcare landscape with the implementation of public, private-partnerships, CIAAG has identified and is leading an entire new industry built on the need for oversight, transparency and acknowledgement that all citizens are stakeholders and therefore, require representation.
CIAAG affected positive societal change by providing valuable insight via their participation as a subject matter expert in group meetings with the UNODC regarding the policy decisions being made at the global level and how they effect the individuals in the communities that we serve.
A global presence consisting of 29 coalition partners
representing 8,224,066 individuals and 70,000 physicians.
Educational initiatives and events that focus on teaching the strategy that accompanies one’s approach to advocacy and the building blocks of how to approach advocacy through our #CIAAGAdvocacy Chats. These monthly chats have encouraged and increased community engagement and participant confidence; working to amplify our collective voice and increasing awareness amongst the general population.
Upon conducting meetings wtih congressional and senatorial offices we presented our research (Violation of A Nation). In response, the FDA provided a safety announcement to the medical community advising against the forced tapering of patients who use opioid pain medications for the treatment of pain/illness.

CIAAG participated in the creation of the UNODC Digital Road Map to
Promote Sustainable Drug Control Public - Private Partnerships which included a number of our recommendations for oversight, transparency and accountability.
CIAAG 's Executive Director, Lauren Deluca, was 1 of 17 experts selected to particpate on the development of the first UNODC, "Digital Roadmap," outlining key recommendations for countries to consider when pursuing the use of public-private partnerships (P3's) in relation to national and international drug policy.
The UNODC's publication included a number of recommendations from CIAAG, including but not limited to:
- The need for strong oversight of the public-private partnerships.
- Outlining clear goals and the monitoring of outcomes.
- Regulating the scientific evidence used to create evidence based practices.
This is the first document of its kind providing guidance to countries across the world on best-practices surrounding the public-private partnership initiatives.
We are incredibly proud to have used our voice while serving on this international committee to ensure policy guidance included strong protections for the civil and human liberties of all citizens in all nations.

FDA Announcement Against Forced Tapering
CIAAG presented their exclusive report, Violation of a Nation to 9 congressional and senatorial offices in April 2019. Our team requested a federal announcement be issued against the practice against involuntary discontinuation from opioid analgesic medications. CIAAG founder Lauren Deluca, stated, "There is substantial evidence of the harms of this practice at this juncture. it would be irresponsible not to. "
As a result of this request, the FDA issued an annoucement against the practice of involuntary discontinuation from opioid analgesic medications and the misapplication of federal guidance documents.
