These organizations are dedicated to medical research, patient care and assistance, and political advocacy for a broad spectrum of diseases and disorders.  
 
While need for COVID-19 specific services increased, these organizations were particularly hit hard because capacity for staff to respond was hampered. With a focus on COVID-19, attention to other diseases and disorders diminished. As a result, this sector experienced a negative 18% drop in revenue year-over-year and was the only sector in this year’s study that experienced negative growth.
