What happens when LCC families, researchers, clinicians, advocates, and partners come together in one room?

We learn from one another. We ask hard questions. We share our stories. We build relationships—and we leave more determined than ever to keep moving LCC research forward.

The 2026 Global LCC Family & Research Conference was filled with meaningful conversations, new connections, honest moments, laughter, tears, and hope. For a rare disease community that is spread across the world, simply being together was incredibly powerful.

To every family, speaker, researcher, volunteer, sponsor, and supporter who made this gathering possible: thank you. You reminded us that no family is alone in this—and that together, we are building a path toward better care, deeper understanding, and treatments for LCC.

This is what persistence looks like. 💙💜

It’s been a fun-filled and productive 4 days in Boston with some of the most amazing and inspirational women. I’m glad I only have to wait a couple of weeks to see them all again. 💗

🎙️ NEW EPISODE OUT NOW: The Brown Family’s LCC Journey 💙

In this heartfelt episode of The LCC Foundation’s podcast, The LCC Circle: Stories, Support, and Science, the Brown family shares their journey with Leukoencephalopathy with Brain Calcifications and Cysts — from diagnosis and daily life to resilience, hope, and the power of community.

Their story is a powerful reminder that no family should face rare disease alone. đź’«

We are so grateful to the Brown family for opening their hearts and helping bring awareness to the realities of living with LCC.

When our son was diagnosed with a rare disease, we were told very little was known.
No roadmap. No treatment. No clear next step.

So we decided to build one.

This July, we are bringing families, researchers, and clinicians together in St. Louis for the first-ever LCC Family & Research Conference—a space for connection, answers, and hope.

But we can’t do it alone.

We’re looking for local businesses, community partners, and individuals who want to stand with families like ours.

Sponsorships start at just $100–$1,000, and every dollar goes toward supporting families and accelerating research.

💙 If you own a business, know someone who does, or just want to help—this is your moment to make a real impact.

✨ From Rare to Remarkable: What You Made Possible in 2025 ✨

This past year, something incredible happened.

Because of this community—because of you—we didn’t just raise awareness…

We built connection.
We created momentum.
We moved closer to something that once felt impossible.

In 2025:
đź’› Families found us from across the world
đź’› Researchers and advocates came together
đź’› A global LCC community continued to grow stronger

One moment that stays with me—
A family from the Netherlands found us through our website.
From there, we helped connect them with doctors and researchers to support Naomi’s care.

That’s what this is about.

Turning isolation into connection.
Uncertainty into direction.
Rare… into remarkable.

This Impact Report isn’t just numbers—it’s people, progress, and possibility.

And the truth is… we’re just getting started.

In 2026, we’re building toward even more:
• Advancing research toward clinical trials
• Bringing families together in St. Louis (& virtually)
• Continuing to grow this global network of support and science

If you’ve been part of this journey—thank you.
If you’re just finding us—welcome.

We’re so glad you’re here 💛
