Founded, owned, and operated by someone with hEDS — we exist because this community needs more. Every purchase you make puts money back into the research, education, and access programs that are changing what it means to live with — and finally get answers about — hEDS and HSD.
A meaningful portion of every evaluation goes back to the people and organizations working hardest to advance EDS research and make diagnosis accessible to everyone who needs it.
Over twenty percent of our anticipated revenue is donated to the Ehlers-Danlos Society, funding research, education, and advocacy across the globe.
Five percent of every evaluation funds our Financial Assistance Program — because ability to pay shouldn't stand between someone and the answers they deserve.

This isn't a logo placement. It's a meaningful, sustained investment in the organization doing some of the most important work in this space.
Our sponsorship funds the EDS Society's ECHO program — a comprehensive, ongoing training initiative that equips board-certified MDs and DOs with the knowledge and tools to accurately diagnose hEDS and HSD. Every EDS Connective provider is ECHO-trained, which means your evaluation is conducted by a clinician who has learned from some of the most knowledgeable EDS experts in the world. Our sponsorship helps make that training possible — and helps extend it to more providers across the country.
Our sponsorship funds the development of the Ehlers-Danlos Society's Massive Open Online Courses — online educational resources being built to raise the standard of EDS knowledge among healthcare professionals worldwide. This program is currently under development, and will be launched following the release of the Road to 2026 diagnostic criteria updates. More educated providers means fewer patients dismissed, fewer years lost to misdiagnosis, and better care for everyone in this community.
Diamond Sponsor — Ehlers-Danlos Society
EDS Connective is the exclusive Diamond Sponsor of the Ehlers-Danlos Society. Our partnership supports provider training through the EDS ECHO program, funds the development of the Society's Massive Open Online Courses, and advances global research and advocacy for the EDS and HSD community.

Access to diagnosis shouldn't depend on your financial situation. That's why 5% of every EDS Connective evaluation funds our Financial Assistance Program, making evaluation available to a limited number of patients each month who need it most. The more we grow, the more financial assistance we will be able to offer.
Financial Assistance Program
A short application. No documentation required. No income verification. We believe you.
Getting evaluated is one way to contribute. But if you want to do more, the Ehlers-Danlos Society makes it easy to get involved — whether that's giving your time or your dollars.
Participate in Research
The EDS Society connects patients with research studies looking for participants. If you want to contribute to what we know about hEDS and HSD, this is a meaningful place to start.
