Our Family Weekend Planning Committee is working hard to make this gathering as meaningful as possible. At our last meeting, we asked our committee members to share what they're most excited about.

"This will be my 3rd time attending a GRIN2B conference and I'm excited to attend at a different point in this journey. At our first conference in Atlanta, we were newly diagnosed and it was a lot to take in. Now I feel like I understand more of the science, and I'm excited to connect with and hear perspectives from newly diagnosed families."
