Federal research funding helps drive progress toward treatments and cures for Ataxia. We want to make sure that research continues to be guided by science.

On September 23, Ataxia advocates will ask Congress to block a proposed OMB rule that could significantly change how federal grants are awarded and managed, including grants that support medical research.

It’s one of the ways our community will speak up for the future of Ataxia research during United Against Ataxia Hill Day.
