We welcome you to the website of the Simon Foundation for Continence.  We are a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation dedicated to: "Bringing the topic of incontinence out of the closet, removing the stigma surrounding it, and providing help and hope for people with incontinence, their families, and the health professionals who provide their care."  Within this website we hope that you will find the help and knowledge which will motivate you to take the steps which will lead to the solution that is right for you, and for your particular incontinence.

Incontinence affects millions of individuals worldwide.  Recent estimates suggest that 26 million adults in America alone are affected by urinary incontinence - and countless more by fecal incontinence. The importance of reporting incontinence to a health professional who is knowledgeable and interested in treating incontinence cannot be overstated, because the symptom of incontinence can also be a warning signal of a developing and possibly serious medical condition.
