After experiencing a health crisis from an adverse response to medication used to treat eczema, Kelly Barta was propelled into the world of advocacy. Her passion for supporting those suffering, as she had, led her to serve on several national and international dermatology non-profits, bringing awareness to the great needs of the eczema and TSW communities in academic, regulatory, and political arenas.

Kelly serves as President and Executive Director of the Coalition of Skin Diseases, a cohort of national non-profit skin-related patient groups that advocate for the 84+ million Americans living with skin conditions. She also serves on the Board of Directors of the patient advocacy group ITSAN. Additionally, Kelly sits on the Patient Advocacy Task Force of the American Academy of Dermatology, the Atopic Eczema Advisory Group for Globalskin.org, and the FDA’s Patient Engagement Collaborative.

In addition to her work in non-profit advocacy, she has also authored the book, “To Eczema, with Love,” which is a memoir of her experience with eczema and Topical Steroid Withdrawal Syndrome, a guide for patients and caregivers and a call to action for all stakeholders in the world of dermatology.
