RARE in the State

We are thrilled to announce that registration is now open for RARE in the State, a four-week program for families navigating rare disease. Caring for a loved one with a rare condition presents unique challenges, including complex medical systems, specialized provider searches, and overwhelming financial demands, which can make finding reliable support feel nearly impossible. While rare disease advocacy has grown, accessing the right help remains a significant hurdle. To bridge this gap, RARE in the State brings families together in peer-led cohorts to identify essential resources, explore financial assistance options, and build sustainable care systems, all at no cost. We encourage you to register now or share this opportunity with someone who could benefit.
