FRAXA Program Coordinator, Elle Skala, and long time FRAXA supporter and previous Board Member, Mary Beth Busby, traveled to the National Institutes of Health earlier this week. The timing of this meeting was perfect because the National Institutes of Health (NIH) just released their long-anticipated Strategic Plan for Fragile X Syndrome, FXTAS, and FXPOI. It will guide federal Fragile X research funding for at least the next five years and open the door for continued funding of the Fragile X Research Centers of Excellence.

As we get closer to the holiday season and the end of the year approaches, we start to reflect on what we have accomplished throughout the year. Did we keep our New Year’s Resolution? Did we spend more time with family and friends? We at FRAXA want to remind you that there is no better time than the present to make a difference. Before the year ends, you can have an impact.
