Join us this Friday, January 23rd for a live Webinar with HD Genetics!

This webinar will offer individuals and families affected by Huntington’s disease a clear, supportive introduction to the role of genetic testing.

This session will explain: what testing can and cannot tell you, why you may decide to test, the different testing options, how results may impact medical care, research, and future planning, the many emotions one may have, and why working with a genetic counselor is essential for informed, confident decision-making.

Join us to learn the benefits, considerations, and available resources and support to help guide your journey.

Take Action Now, Stand Up for AMT-130

AMT-130, a promising gene therapy for Huntington’s disease, is at risk of not getting a full, fair FDA review. After decades without a treatment that slows or stops HD, families cannot afford delays.

Ask your Members of Congress to urge the FDA to allow AMT-130 to move forward to a science-driven review.

Your message right now can help keep hope moving forward.
