About this Event
Join us for this year’s Huntington’s Disease (HD) Education Day. This is an opportunity to connect with other individuals and care partners affected by HD and to learn from guest speakers on how to manage symptoms related to HD. This event is hosted by the OHSU Movement Disorders Program, but you do not have to be an OHSU patient to attend. Lunch and refreshments will be served. We hope to see you there!
