    • Mission

    The Muscular Dystrophy Association is a national voluntary health agency dedicated to fighting 43 neuromuscular diseases through an unparalleled worldwide research effort, a nationwide program of medical services and far-reaching professional and public health education. Individual MDA research grants to investigators number more than 500. Through MDA's patient services program, comprehensive medical services are furnished to children and adults with neuro-muscular diseases at some 230 hospital-affiliated clinics and through the Association's chapters. The Association receives no government grants, nor does it seek or receive fees from the people it serves or their families.

    About Us

    We’re fighting to free individuals - and the families who love them - from the harmful effects of muscular dystrophy, ALS and related life-threatening diseases through funding research, establishing care centers, and providing services for people living with muscular dystrophy so they can live longer and grow stronger.
