Chapters
Cure SMA has 34 volunteer-led chapters across the United States.
Chapters support the mission of Cure SMA in several ways.
- Chapters provide a base of community and support for families affected by SMA, whether sharing practical advice or simply having someone nearby who understands what you are facing.
- Chapters often work together to organize Walk-n-Rolls or other fundraising events.
- Chapters keep their members informed of opportunities for local advocacy and awareness.
