MISSION

People with psoriasis living good lives

The Finnish Psoriasis Association promotes the overall well-being and social inclusion of people with psoriasis. The Finnish Psoriasis Association supports the work of psoriasis associations and volunteer organisations to enable peer support. At the heart of our operations is the provision of information and support for people with psoriasis and their families.

In Finland, about 2 percent of the population, or about 100,000 people, suffer from psoriasis. Of them, 5–10 percent have severe psoriasis.
