This is a great opportunity to bring together the members of our community to share stories, experiences, and form lasting relationships all while raising funds and increasing awareness of these rare neuro-immune disorders. Funds raised from events such as this allow the TMA to continue to offer educational programs ("Ask the Experts" podcasts, the Rare Neuro-Immune Disorders symposium, James T. Lubin Fellowship, and Quality of Life camp) and to support groundbreaking research. On average more than 100 people attend these events so don't miss this chance to meet others diagnosed with rare neuro-immune disorders or just give your support for a great cause. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
