Patients and families who live with rare diseases are our focus.  According to the National Organization of Rare Diseases (NORD), there are 30 million people in the United States and 350 million people in the world who suffer from a rare disease. Many of these patients find support and information from the patient advocacy groups which have been established. We share common goals with these groups and value our relationships with them.
