Rare Disease Radar
What is a RDR Chapter?
A chapter of RareDiseaseRadar is a group of any size from any place looking to make a difference in rare disease awareness and fundraising. These groups can be anywhere from 3-4 people to entire schools or counties. Regardless of the size, these chapters will be crucial to our mission of advocacy and equality. Whether from fundraising, lobbying for policies, writing blog posts, or even just being a part of our mission, these chapters will be committed to service.
