Our Genesis & Vision
Established in 2019 to encourage self-management of chronic illnesses among Minorities
" Novocognia" stands for "New Awareness". The Elephant logo symbolizes wisdom & strength, but also refers to the idiom - "the elephant in the room". The Kidneys as elephant ears symbolize the plight of Chronic Kidney Disease patients needing to be heard. The patterns & colors inside the lettering represents the multitude of cultural backgrounds of Minorities.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to help Minorities understand the daunting challenges of kidney disease, dialysis treatment options, and the kidney transplant process by providing targeted education and support to improve healthcare outcomes for everyone.
PROGRAMS/SERVICES
We offer culturally specific health fairs, one to one counseling, seminars and workshops. With an annual membership fee of only $60/year we guide our customers through a unique sequential set of programs designed to educate and empower them on their journey facing kidney disease.
