From our friends at the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD):
You are invited to join the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) for our upcoming virtual community conversation: Finding Strength in Self-Acceptance
Date: Thursday, July 17, 2025
Time: 6-7 p.m. ET
Living with a rare disease comes with unique challenges – uncertainty, isolation, and feeling misunderstood. Within these experiences lies an incredible source of strength: self-acceptance. In this uplifting and supportive community conversation, panelists will explore how to embrace life as it is. Together, we’ll discuss how accepting our realities can lead to greater emotional well-being, stronger self-advocacy, and deeper connections with others.
Whether you are newly diagnosed or years into your rare disease journey, this virtual event will help instill that you are more than your diagnosis.
Please register in advance for this virtual event. We look forward to your attendance!
