Project Strong: Who We Are

 

We want to create opportunities that are not often readily available to those with NMD that have specific physical needs. Project Strong aims to promote a safe community that fosters friendships, understanding, and inclusivity for those of all abilities.

 

*NEUROMUSCULAR DISEASES are diseases that impair the functioning of muscles either directly,  causing progressive muscle weakness or indirectly, which involves communication breakdown between  nerves and muscle.  Some common forms of NMD are Becker Muscular Dystrophy, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Congenital Myopathies,  Myotonic Dystrophy, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT).
