Educating employers about #Lupus is very important. It is against the law for an employer to discriminate against an individual with a disability like #Lupus .
Awareness & education is Key! #Lupus affects everyone differently, there are no 2 cases alike. #SWHRtalksLupus

Thank you Ayanna Dookie fir sharing your story. We are not alone every time we learn something new. #SWHRtalkslupus
