State Ambassador Program

This program was developed by NORD for volunteer state ambassadors to establish and build a strong grassroots network of rare disease advocates to help drive advocacy for increasing awareness of rare diseases and the challenges faced by individuals and their families. Ambassadors help achieve these goals by leading advocacy efforts in their state and local communities. They do this by building a strong grassroots network of rare disease advocates within their state and collaborating with other advocates on advocacy, awareness and educational outreach programs.
