Join the Neuromuscular Community in Dallas this Fall
Spend a full day connecting, learning, and sharing with others who truly understand life with neuromuscular disease. The MDA Engage Symposium brings together individuals living with neuromuscular disease, caregivers, clinicians, and experts for in-person sessions designed to inform, support, and inspire.
From condition-specific discussions to real-life topics like navigating life transitions or planning for independence, you'll leave with information you can actually use — and connections that last well beyond the weekend.
Throughout the day, you can explore resources, talk with experts, and be part of meaningful conversations that reflect your experiences and needs. We will end the evening with a Networking Reception featuring hors d'oeuvres, activities, and time to meet others in the community.
