2011 NNPDF Family Conference Recap

The 2011 National Niemann-Pick Disease Foundation's Family Support and Medical Conference, held recently in Norfolk, Virginia, was a resounding success! NNPDF families from the U.S., Canada, and several other countries came together to learn the latest in research and clinical care, and to share in supporting one another along the difficult journey presented by Niemann-Pick Disease.



Members of the NNPDF board and staff extend their greatest appreciation to the many volunteers, speakers, the staff of the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel, and others who went above and beyond the call of duty to make the conference such a wonderfully enriching experience.



Photos of the conference are now available on the NNPDF Web site: www.nnpdf.org. Fun photos include many taken at the Peninsula Pilots baseball game, the Saturday evening banquet and dance, conference sessions, and informal gatherings of families and friends.
