Alliance Against Pediatric Asthma in Puerto Rico

The Alliance Against Pediatric Asthma (Alianza contra el Asma Pediátrica) is a non-profit coalition in Puerto Rico dedicated to reducing the burden of asthma among children. Founded as a collaborative initiative involving the Puerto Rico Department of Health and the University of Puerto Rico, the organization focuses on standardizing clinical care and education. It promotes the implementation of evidence-based guidelines for asthma management across the island's healthcare system. The Alliance provides training for healthcare professionals and educational resources for families to improve self-management of the condition. Their primary goal is to decrease asthma-related morbidity, including hospitalizations and emergency department visits.
