The History of Sickle Cell Reproductive Health Education Directive (SC RED)
Sickle Cell Reproductive Health Education Directive (SC RED) was conceptualized in 2020 and established as a 501c3 nonprofit on April 8th, 2021. Our co-founder and CEO, Teonna Woolford sought to create the organization because she felt defeated by fertility struggles after a bone marrow transplant. When researching and seeking resources for fertility preservation, she found very little information about fertility and sickle cell and no resources to help pay for the costly procedure.
Our work at SC RED is always evolving. Please let us know how we can support you on your reproductive health journey.
