Welcome to the Idaho Chapter!
Founded by Minette Hale in January 2020, the goals of the Chapter Program here in the Idaho area are to:
- Increase awareness and educate families throughout Idaho.
- Help build connections among patients, care givers, health care providers and others affected by this disease.
- Harness the power of those shared connections allowing us all to gain strength, support and encouragement as we push forward in finding a cure for FSHD.
- Last but not least let’s HAVE SOME FUN while we accomplish these goals!
Please join our chapter via the "Stay informed on Local Activities" form on the right. We'll make sure you receive updates about future events and plans!

Thank you for supporting the Walk & Roll in 2022!
This year, we combined the Utah Chapter and the Idaho Chapter Walk & Rolls to form the Intermountain Walk & Roll to Cure FSHD! A huge THANK YOU to everyone who walked, rolled, donated, and showed up on Saturday, September 17th in Canyon Rim Park in Millcreek, UT! We are thrilled to announce that we raised over $13,000!!! There is still time to contribute, and you can do so here.
