Curadis (/'kjʊr.ʌ.dɪs/) is a non-profit organization with the aim to exchange experience and knowledge about the diagnosis and treatment of swallowing disorders between Europe, The United States and Latin America. Curadis provides volunteer outreach, education, diagnostics and treatment to communities in need throughout Latin America on a fully pro-bono basis. We are currently working on projects in Brazil and Costa Rica and are always adding more and more projects when we can. We are a small team of passionate healthcare workers who simply seek to help those in need. As humans, we are all able to constantly grow and learn, and Curadis is our ability to achieve our personal goal of giving back to the various communities who are in need. Curadis volunteers do not receive any funds or payment in any way for their services. Find out more on our CuradisUSA.org web portal.
