World Atopic Eczema Day: Our Skin, Our Journey

GPER builds resources by parents for parents: creating for the next generation what we wish we had when our kids were diagnosed with eczema.

The GPER Journey…

"When my son was diagnosed with eczema, treatments were limited and no new ones had been developed for children in decades. I formed GPER because of the need for evidence-based research on behalf of children with eczema."

Korey co-founded Global Parents for Eczema Research in 2015

“I was underwater dealing with my son’s eczema. Up all night crying — both of us — was the worst thing I could wish on a parent. Helping parents find solutions for itch, triggers, mental health, lack of sleep, and other eczema challenges is why I get up in the mornings.”

“When my oldest child's eczema became severe, I was desperate to find someone who could relate to my struggle and show me a light at the end of the tunnel. The helplessness was overwhelming, and no parent should ever have to feel alone.”

Keri launched our Caregiver Support program and continues to serve as a coach

“I dealt with eczema as a child, so I understand the mental toll it takes on kids. Working with GPER has been my way to make things better for the next generation of eczema kids, and I hope an inclusive, supportive coloring book about their journey will be a key part of that.”
