Janice Schmidt's Company Details

Founded in 1995, the Interstitial Cystitis Network is a woman owned,"social advocacy" health education company dedicated to interstitial cystitis and other pelvic pain disorders. A social networking pioneer, we create innovative solutions to the pressing problems facing patients diagnosed with urologic conditions, medical care providers who care for them and the research community seeking new treatments and cures. For the past 16 years, we have provided critical 24/7 support to patients in need, developed new educational materials, conducted vital research, provided webinars/lectures and created IC awareness campaigns, all at NO COST to the patients who visit our website.Based in California, we believe that IC patients have much to give the world, as well as talent and experience to share. We encourage and nurture entrepreneurship for those who may have lost their jobs and/or health insurance. We employ only IC and pelvic pain patients in our offices and/or as subcontractors. We value social responsibility and adapt, whenever possible, green business practices. We encourage, for example, the delivery of our magazine via email to reduce paper consumption and reduce the end user subscription costs.
