Spinal Muscular Atrophy Awareness: Advancing Hope Through Compassion and Innovation

August is also Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Awareness Month, and Libertana proudly stands with families impacted by this rare neuromuscular disorder. SMA primarily affects infants and children, weakening muscles and impacting movement, breathing, and daily activities.

In recent years, advancements in genetic testing and therapy have changed the outlook for individuals with SMA, offering new hope and improved quality of life. Libertana continues to support these efforts through coordinated care planning, palliative support, and connecting families with resources and specialists.

This month, we honor the courage of clients and caregivers navigating SMA and shine a light on the research and innovation transforming lives. Our team remains committed to ensuring that every client, regardless of diagnosis, receives personalized care rooted in dignity, compassion, and advocacy.
