Hepatitis C is
difficult to understand, and there are LOTS of "experts" out there who are more
than willing to take advantage of the uninformed. Please feel free to call our National Support Line
for more detailed and personal attention related to hepatitis C (304.975.3857).
The folks who keep the NHCC in operation are
unique people. ALL are volunteers who help fund our daily operations, tend to
our telephone support lines, attend health fairs, and do just about anything
necessary to help the NHCC continue to operate. These folks are required to have
extensive and personal hepatitis C experience behind them before speaking to
patients or family members about the disease, but this is just so we can make
sure that what's shared is honest, trustworthy, and that our reputation remains
stellar and accurate as always.
Times are difficult for most folks and money is
tight. However, we too have significant expenses just keeping the NHCC in
operation, and this is why it's so important that we reach out to good people
like yourselves who will help us remain active for the "cause".
Please remember us in your prayers as well as
with your financial contributions, and we promise that we'll do our very best to
be here when you need us!
The NHCC is a 501(c)3 charitable
organization.
Financial donation are tax-deductible.

PLEASE NOTE:
We're sorry, but due to the extreme volume of email we
receive each day we can no longer provide individual
written replies to support questions about
hepatitis C. Please see the many pages included in
this website for information about the disease and
then call our National HepLine telephone number listed
at the top of this page for additional information and
support.
Although we've found it to be more economically
prudent not to install a toll-free
telephone number for the organization, we are set up for unlimited long
distance calling and we'll return your calls
on "our nickel" when requested.
INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS PLEASE NOTE:
As much as we'd like to be
able to provide information and support to
individuals who are incarcerated, experience
has shown that the majority of our mailings
never reach those who need them and are
instead returned to us by the system.
We suggest instead that
family members contact us and make
arrangements themselves to distribute our
information to their loved ones behind the
walls. Thank you for understanding.
Except for the fact that HIV/AIDS and
hepatitis C are both blood-borne diseases,
the illnesses have absolutely NOTHING in common!
