Inspired by his uncle and cousin who lived with muscular dystrophy, Zack has volunteered at MDA Summer Camp for the last 14 years.
He says the community gives him strength, but it’s his commitment that makes us stronger. Thank you, Zack!

We are proud of what MDA advocates have accomplished over the past six months. We know many in our community are feeling anxious or uncertain about what comes next. Join us July 15 @ 7PM ET for a special MDA Advocacy Institute: Medicaid and the Path Forward.
Congress has passed legislation that makes historic cuts to #Medicaid, #Medicare, and #ACA, & it could leave 17M more uninsured, including those w/ #neuromuscular diseases.
#MDA is disappointed, and we pledge to defend our community.

Today, the U.S. Senate passed a bill making devastating cuts to Medicaid & other health programs that the #neuromuscular community relies on to build healthy lives & independence.
Urge the House to reject this bill & its cuts NOW!

Read the letter: d3dkdvqff0zqx.cloudfront.net/groups/mda/a...
Today, MDA & 41 neuromuscular disease organizations sent a letter to the U.S. Senate leadership rejecting cuts to #Medicaid and affordable health insurance coverage/services used by the #neuromuscular community - raising costs, imposing red tape, and delaying care.
In 1986, Dr. Lou Kunkel cracked the genetic code of dystrophin, the gene behind Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies. This breakthrough paved the way for lifesaving treatments and gene therapies that are transforming lives today. 💛💙
