This regional patient association for people with psoriasis in Northern Ostrobothnia was founded in 1978. It belongs to the network of the Finnish Psoriasis Association and was previously named Pohjois-Pohjanmaan Psori r.y. (1986–1991).
It offers free peer support, answers members' questions about psoriasis and gives advice for everyday life. Member evenings feature experts from medicine, nursing and other fields, and the programme includes peer support events and a family Christmas party. Members receive newsletters. The association is based in Osnakodit.
