TED Community Organization Presents:

CONNECTED 2025

TED AWARENESS WEEK 2025

Join us on the Journey from TED to NED
We Are Rewriting Our Story. Reclaiming Our Lives.

CONNECTED 2025 is the first global virtual conference created by and for people impacted by Thyroid Eye Disease (TED). Hosted by the TED Community Organization—the only 501(c)(3) nonprofit solely focused on TED—this immersive, weeklong event brings together patients, caregivers, medical experts, advocacy leaders, and industry partners for six days of education, empowerment, and connection. 

Each evening presented two one-hour sessions, November 10–15, 2025, CONNECTED 2025 is designed to support patients in finding their way from diagnosis to “NED” (No Evidence of Disease) through science, story, and solidarity.

Why It Matters

TED is a disfiguring, painful, and life-disrupting autoimmune condition. But too often, the patient journey is defined by fear, isolation, and uncertainty. CONNECTED 2025 is changing that.

This event reclaims the TED narrative—shifting it from one of helplessness to one of agency, education, and healing. With a rich lineup of expert-led sessions, lived experience panels, and community-building spaces, CONNECTED 2025 helps patients take their lives back and support others along the way.
