The Cystic Fibrosis Association of North Dakota (CFA) devotes its time and financial resources to helping North Dakotans with cystic fibrosis (CF) and their families by:

• Assisting with the costs of medications and medical equipment not covered by insurance
• Providing funding for lung transplants
• Coordinating support group meetings
• Providing college scholarships so young people with cystic fibrosis can focus on studies, and not compromise their education because they need jobs to support their educational endeavors
• Informing the public about cystic fibrosis and current research
• Lobbying to protect individuals with CF and their families from undergoing undue hardship and ensuring their right to receive health care coverage.
   

The CFA is a statewide non-profit corporation. It is not affiliated with any national or international parent organization, nor does it receive any government assistance.

A dedicated staff of four professionals coordinates activities throughout the state.
