As campers, counselors, volunteers, and the Camp CoAg staff wake up in their own beds this morning, our hearts are filled with gratitude and pride as we reflect on an extraordinary week at Camp Cole. What began as a vision has now become a reality, and we are incredibly proud of what was accomplished through the inaugural Camp CoAg.
One of the most inspiring parts of State Advocacy Days was seeing advocates supporting each other. People from different backgrounds came together with one purpose — to stand up for their communities and make sure their voices were heard. State Advocacy Days are more than just meetings at the capitol. They’re about empowerment, connection, and making sure the voices of our communities are part of the decision-making process. We’re grateful for the opportunity to participate and proud to stand alongside so many dedicated advocates.
The National Bleeding Disorders Foundation defines bleeding disorders as a group of disorders that share the inability to form a proper blood clot. They are characterized by extended bleeding after injury, surgery, trauma or menstruation.
We have many programs, educational opportunities, and events to help individuals and their families connect to the South Carolina bleeding disorders community. BDASC also provides networking and support services.
Advocacy is a key component of our mission at BDASC. It is also important to those affected by bleeding disorders in assuring health care needs are being met especially when living with a rare and chronic, lifelong disorder.

BDASC, formerly Hemophilia of South Carolina, was founded in 1973 by a group of parents interested in promoting awareness, providing group support, and assisting other national hemophilia organizations. The organization for 42 years existed as all-volunteer; providing programs and education, support, and advocacy for access to care at the state’s capitol. Today, BDASC serves all 46 counties in the state, currently providing education and support services to over 1000 individual members and their families now in 39 counties. BDASC provides the most current information and education in topics related to bleeding disorders, treatment therapies, insurance, and advocacy. BDASC relies on a strong volunteer base of it’s board of directors and members. Without our volunteers, we could not serve our mission.
Mental health care matters. It is important to maintain our mental health as well as we maintain our physical health. Learn about some resources and tools from National Bleeding Disorder Organizations, National Mental Health Organizations, as well as some South Carolina focused groups to help support your mental well-being.
Bleeding Disorders Association of South Carolina community members had a direct voice in the development of the priorities for research by participating in focus groups, hosting community voices summits, and BDASC executive director, Sue Martin participated throughout the entire project and is a co-author of the final published manuscript of the National Research Blueprint.
There are many ways you can make in a difference in the lives of those affected by bleeding disorders.
