APBDRF Accepted into NORD
As of February 2, the APBD Research Foundation was accepted as a member organization in NORD, the National Organization for Rare Disorders. Through NORD, member organizations gain a stronger voice in rare disease visibility, advocacy, policy development, education, and research support. Becoming a NORD member reflects well on the APBDRF. Acceptance was by no means a shoe-in. NORD reviewed and approved of our organizational infrastructure, as well as our actual work on behalf of APBD patients. They confirmed that the research foundation has appropriate by-laws, board membership, scientific advisors, financial budgeting, board meetings, and record-keeping. They reviewed our Annual Report and the educational materials that we distribute. We’re quite proud of this achievement. Our thanks go to the many hands who developed our application package
