Welcome to the Chicagoland Chapter

The Chicagoland chapter of the FSHD Society is a local group of people, families, and advocates working together to support those living with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Whether you join us in person or virtually, our chapter offers a place to connect with others who understand what you’re going through.

Nous vous apportons notre soutien, nous partageons les ressources locales et nous vous tenons informé des dernières recherches et des soins les plus récents. Que vous soyez nouvellement diagnostiqué ou que vous viviez avec la FSHD depuis des années, nous sommes là pour vous soutenir, à chaque étape de votre parcours.

Rejoignez votre section locale et apprenez comment nous pouvons vous aider dans votre parcours avec la FSHD.
