Today is a day to celebrate for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

It is amazing to witness a change in history. After years of advocacy, DMD has been added to the Recommended Uniform Screening Panel (RUSP) across all states. 🎉 The NMRL gives a HUGE shout out to PPMD and MDA, two organizations that have worked to make this milestone happen 💪💪💪

For more information, please check out the PPMD and MDA IG and website for the press release and blog. Links also provided in our Bio!
