Mission Statement

The mission of the Southern Tier Kidney Association is to provide information and support to the kidney patients of the Southern Tier and surrounding area.

We will accomplish this in collaboration with the WCA staff by providing social opportunities and information sessions for patients and their immediate families, and by making ongoing improvements to the facilities of the dialysis unit.
