Since 2017, Global Genes and the EveryLife Foundation have partnered to host RARE on the Road events around the country, developing the next generation of advocacy leaders. In 2021, we are hosting a virtual event as well as three live events for RARE on the Road
With feedback from the community, we designed a unique experience that will empower attendees to build their skill set, enhance their knowledge, engage in advocacy, and network with their local rare disease community.
These events are geared toward rare disease community members who want to tell their rare disease story, make an impact in the lives of others, and connect locally with fellow rare disease community members.
