The IFOPA is committed to fostering more regional connections for those living with FOP. The Midwest Family Gathering and Clinical Meeting, held Nov. 5-6 in St. Louis, MO, is one way we are fostering these connections. Regional meetings are also a great way to begin developing more local clinicians who are prepared to evaluate and treat FOP patients.

The Midwest Family Gathering is the first of several regional meetings the IFOPA hopes to offer each year. Email [email protected] and let us know if you would be interested in attending a regional gathering in your area.
