The International Mobile App!

It was our aim to develop a user-friendly approach to provide education, resources, and information to our HD/JHD community and the general public. The mobile application will continue to grow and expand throughout 2016. The goal of this mobile application is to deliver an “on the go” tool-kit of resources to the user. Inasmuch, the mobile application exists as an inclusive advocacy instrument – offering the user a broad scope of resources. An “open-call” was announced across all social media platforms to include HD/JHD nonprofit organizations, research organizations, bloggers, and pharmaceutical companies. We were pleased at the response, and will continue our “open-door” policy to better the lives of our Huntington’s peers.
