Staci and Rich Grodin founded Turn the Corner Foundation
in February of 2002. Staci has suffered from Lyme disease since
1994 and through her diagnosis and treatment over the
past eleven years, she has uncovered a strong need for
research and funding in the area of tick-borne diseases.
Lyme disease is growing at four times the rate of AIDS
and is quickly becoming our nation's most misdiagnosed
and fastest-growing infectious disease. Educating
the public and physicians regarding the disease and
the progression of treatment is essential.
Mission
Turn the Corner is dedicated to the support of research,
education, awareness and innovative treatments for Lyme
disease and other tick-borne diseases.
How Turn the Corner
Will Make a Difference
The Foundation intends to make grants to medical associations,
hospitals, colleges and other research organizations to
advance, by clinical study, laboratory research, data
gathering and other research methods, knowledge of the
causes, progression and treatment of Lyme disease and
other tick-borne diseases. Please click here to read more

to date has made a difference.
