We're celebrating
40 years!
The Advocacy Committee is composed of individuals living with rare diseases and caregivers who help steer our decisions as legislative, regulatory, and other policy proposals are weighed. Members meet regularly and contribute their insights about the unique and changing challenges people affected by rare diseases face every day.
Working on the forefront of public policy, our policy priorities and advocacy efforts are focused in a nonpartisan way to achieve the mission of NORD.
