Get Involved

Attend one of our events

You can keep informed of all our events by subscribing to our quarterly E-Newsletter, by checking our Philly Cure HD Facebook page, Instagram feed or checking our upcoming events here on our website.

 

Participate in HD research

Did you know that some of the HD clinical trials have been slowed as they have had difficulty recruiting sufficient participants? You can find an HSG’s clinical research site nearest you by visiting the Huntington’s Study Group. If you yourself can’t be a participant, please help educate others about the need and perhaps you can help transport someone to the testing sites.

 

Become an HD advocate

Help educate others about Huntington’s disease and let others know about Philly Cure HD’s support to the local HD community.
