Attention Minnesota Advocates!
Want to learn more about the Minnesota Rare Action Network and how you can get involved? Join members of the Rare Action Network for our monthly virtual meeting the last Thursday of every month from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm! It is a great time to network with other advocates and discuss issues facing the Minnesota Rare Disease community. Information on how to access the virtual platform is sent out via email each month. To access virtual meetings, join the Rare Action Network by selecting the orange ‘Join RAN’ button in the top right-hand corner of this page. Please contact Maria Null, Community Engagement Liaison to RSVP for meetings [email protected]

In this fifth edition of NORD’s “State of the States Report,” we analyze all 50 states and Washington, D.C., on eight issues that impact the rare disease community. Each state has their own individual report card (as seen below), but for more background and an explanation of the grading methodology, please download the full report.
