Speak Foundation

Connecting our lives, sharing our hopes, and finding our purpose. The Speak Foundation is for anyone dealing with a physical disability. The Speak Foundation is the first nonprofit where individuals with neuromuscular diseases serve individuals with neuromuscular diseases. Speak Foundation is unique in that the organization is plugged into the crucial needs of those with physical disabilities as the group is run and staffed by all volunteers or family dealing directly with physical disabilities or neuromuscular diseases. The largest event we hold all year is our annual conference for people with neuromuscular diseases and other illnesses or disabilities. We recently held our 8th annual conference this summer. This is a national retreat focused on bringing together people who can relate and understand each other’s challenges. Each year, we provide a context for socializing, share helpful resources, and aim to bring in speakers and highlight topics that the NMD community has expressed are most relevant and important to them. We welcome people of all ages, along with their loves ones, caregivers, etc. We hope you can join us this summer in Atlanta, GA! Members of our community also hold regional meet-ups throughout the year. Please contact us if you're interested in holding one!
