September is Dystonia Awareness Month! See how you can help by clicking here.
Promoting public awareness of dystonia is one of the most important aspects of the DMRF Canada's mission. In addition to improving society’s recognition and understanding of dystonia, increased awareness directly impacts our ability to fundraise for research and identify people and families who need our help.
