Wednesday, September 10, 2025, 7:00 – 8:00 pm PT 

Scleroderma 101: Sexuality and Scleroderma with Elaine Furst, RN, BSN, MA 

Join us for an informational webinar on sexuality and sensuality and their significance for all individuals, including those with scleroderma, physical and emotional aspects of sex and scleroderma, scleroderma and pregnancy, and coping strategies.

Our presenter, Elaine Furst is a retired nurse and nurse-educator with advanced degrees in liberal arts and nursing administration. She has served as a clinical instructor at four university nursing schools and managed a psychiatric hospital and adolescent mental health program in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.  Currently, she works as a background actress and medical staff in film and television.  

Since 1994, Elaine has been a dedicated volunteer with the Scleroderma Foundation, including serving as past Chair of the National Board and editor of the California Chapter’s newsletter, the ScleroSun. Drawing on her professional background, she conducts science-based, practical workshops and lectures to help those affected by scleroderma, making coping with the disease a bit easier—a quality she humorously suggests is key to her marriage to Dr. Dan Furst.  

People with Scleroderma, family members, supporters, and caregivers are ALL welcome to attend!
