Our friends over at Global Genes have made RARE Toolkits available to educate and assist those with rare disease and families of those with rare disease.  We are happy to share this information with you.

RARE Toolkits provide individuals with usable information on a variety of topics related to living with and/or advocating for rare disease patients. RARE Toolkits are being created in collaboration with key rare disease stakeholders that have developed a vast array of subject matter expertise and believe in the importance of sharing these best practices. RARE Toolkits are interactive and will continue to evolve as advocates share additional best practices around specific topics. These important resources are being made available online, as a print version that can be downloadable in a PDF format, and in print. If you don’t see a topic that you need or if you are interested in collaborating around a specific topic, please contact us.
