No.
We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to curing neurological diseases and empowering communities to lead healthier lives. While we organize large-scale events to support our mission, we are not a for-profit company or an events company. Our focus is, and always will be, on health.
We recognize that in today’s world, questions of social justice and politics are ever-present. Understandably, people often ask where we stand. Our answer is intentional: we remain neutral on political and social issues so we can stay singularly focused on our mission.
Our neutrality is not indifference. It's a thoughtful choice that reflects our commitment to creating a space where people from all backgrounds and viewpoints feel welcome and allows us to best serve our communities.
Neurological diseases and health issues affect everyone regardless of borders or ideology. To achieve our mission, we must build bridges across communities -through research, education, and partnerships -- without the weight of political or cultural bias. Remaining true to our core values of inclusivity and focus positions us to create lasting impact
