THE CHILDREN’S LYME DISEASE NETWORK
The Children’s Lyme Disease Network (CLDN) was launched in May 2011 with the sole purpose of focusing attention on the impact and prevalence of Lyme Disease and other tick-borne infections in children. The all-volunteer organization was formed out of a concern over the growing number of children becoming infected with Lyme Disease and the challenges families face in getting a proper diagnosis and treatment.
