Our Mission, Support & Advocacy

COPD Compass Care Advocacy Group is a dedicated support, education, and advocacy community for individuals living with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), their families, and caregivers. Living with COPD can be physically exhausting, emotionally challenging, and isolating. From understanding a diagnosis and exploring treatments to managing symptoms and adapting to daily life, the challenges can feel overwhelming. Our mission is to provide reliable, accessible education, practical guidance, and compassionate peer support in a welcoming, judgment-free environment. Through shared experiences and open conversations, we empower members to make informed decisions, strengthen self-advocacy, and improve their quality of life. We believe no one should face COPD alone. Together, we learn, support one another, and advocate for better care. Chad J Windheim (President)
