Increasing public awareness of FGIMDs is critical to our mission of advancing research and improving care. A higher profile for these conditions translates to a larger federal investment in research activities and a stronger commitment from industry to develop new treatment options. Furthermore, the general public’s ability to recognize these conditions has a direct impact on our ability to fundraise for research projects and identify individuals who can benefit from our support services.
