DYRK1A Syndrome Awareness Day!
Today, we raise awareness, spread love, and show our support for individuals and families impacted by this rare genetic condition. This cause is especially close to our hearts because DYRK1A Syndrome affects one of our very own, Everlee (7), the youngest daughter of our Marketing Specialist, Dakota Wilson!
Did you know? DYRK1A Syndrome is a rare genetic condition caused by a mutation or change in the DYRK1A gene.

Because it is so rare, raising awareness helps foster better understanding, research, and support.
