The Sickle Cell Awareness Foundation Corp Intl, based in Jamaica, NY, is a dedicated organization that aims to raise awareness and provide support for individuals and families affected by sickle cell disease. Led by President and CEO Merlene Smith-Sotillo, the foundation has been instrumental in advocating for legislation and implementing programs to detect and educate about sickle cell disease, which affects a significant number of Black, African American, Hispanic, Southern European, Middle Eastern, and Asian Indian individuals. Through their efforts, including the successful passage of the S.5605-B SANDERS bill, the foundation ensures that emergency services personnel receive comprehensive training in mental health issues, crisis intervention, implicit bias, and naloxone administration. With the recent signing of the S.7144 SANDERS bill by the Governor, the foundation continues to make strides in promoting sickle cell education, as evidenced by the City Council's approval and Governor Hochul's endorsement of a sickle cell education bill.
