our mission

Here at the Bitten Project, we’re all about empowering teens battling Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. We're building a place where young fighters feel heard and supported, spreading knowledge about these diseases, and giving teens the tools to tackle their health challenges. Together, we're turning up the volume on young voices and creating a community where no one fights alone.

Community

You don’t have to go through Lyme alone. Join our weekly support group—a safe space where we come together, share our stories, and lift each other up. Here, community isn’t just a word; it’s a lifeline.

Our approach

Advocacy

Our Lyme resources and information are here for you. By staying informed and advocating for awareness, you play a crucial role in the fight against this often misunderstood illness. Knowledge is power!

Amplifying Voices

Through our blog and forums, young Lyme patients have a space to spread their message of resilience and hope. By giving voice to their experiences, they empower themselves and inspire and educate others in the community.

These support groups gave me back the support and community that I lost when I got my diagnosis. It feels good to be understood
