Cure JM Billboard: Because a Cure Can't Wait

What Did You Miss?

Our 12th Annual National Family Conference and Walk Strong to Cure JM™ fundraiser connected Cure JM families with one another and with prominent JM researchers.

90 families from across the country, Canada and France - 40 grandparents, 150+ parents, 70 children, 50 teens, and over a dozen young adults, attended the meeting. Our one-day medical conference convened a record-breaking 90 medical professionals.

Cure JM mom, Erin P. described it this way, “What a great experience this has been for us! Meeting other JM families from all over the country! Their stories all have been inspiring and every single one of these precious babies are just pure miracles. When dealing with such a rare disease it’s comforting to meet others and know you have people who are going through the same thing with their child. Listening to some of the scientists, doctors and volunteers that work tirelessly day in and day out to help find safer treatments and a cure for JM has been so inspiring.”

Did you miss a session, or you simply couldn’t attend?

We’ve got you covered with detailed meeting coverage. Read about sessions, watch sessions, and explore hundreds of photos.

Don’t forget! You’re invited to next year’s conference in Chicago, on June 21 – 23, 2019.

The meeting will be held at the beautiful Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus in Oak Brook, IL, which is approximately 20 miles west of Chicago.

Join us for an unforgettable weekend!
