Mission Statement

             Our purpose is to host conferences for the global Morquio community, promoting community, education, and research, as well as specific issues the community wishes to address. Through meeting one another, developing friendships, and engaging with the medical community, it is our hope that we can draw strength in our union and develop a voice to improve our social as well as physical wellbeing.
