BORN A HERO was at the 2016 Rare Disease Legislative Advocates (RDLA) conference on Capitol Hill. This event is a life changing experience. We learned so much and made so many amazing connections. We were given the opportunity to speak to our Senators and Representatives about passing bills that will be beneficial to us and our Rare Syndrome community. BORN A HERO is so happy to be a member of the EveryLife Foundation and to be involved with RDLA.
