Rare Disease Day 2021
Each year on the last day of February rare disease patients, researchers, and advocates join together to celebrate Rare Disease Day. Rare Disease Day is celebrated in February because it has a rare number of days. The Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, or CoRDS, takes part each year in the celebration. Events are held across the globe for people to join to advocate and raise awareness for rare diseases!
