The Future is not a place we are going, but a place we are creating. First in mind… next in will… then in activity.

The FSHD Society’s dedicated staff and committed volunteers bring extraordinary knowledge, expertise, organizational skills, and a great sense of urgency to carrying out our mission. It is the coordinated effort we build with volunteers, patients, family members, healthcare professionals, research leaders, industry, and governments that will lead us to treatments by 2025 and then on to a cure.
