Partnerships
Working together can bring about monumental changes and amplify our collective impact with and for the neuromuscular community.
Breaking barriers, together
For decades we’ve worked with our community and a network of dedicated supporters and experts to lead the way in Canada’s neuromuscular landscape, breaking down barriers for people living with neuromuscular disorders.
Like our community, we know that asking for help is a strength, not a weakness. That collaborative spirit is baked into our history and impact: our founder’s bold request to a Fire Department sparked our longstanding partnership with Fire Fighters. More recently, our collaboration with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research led to the creation of the Neuromuscular Disease Network for Canada.
