What You Missed: 2025 iNFo Fair

Our 2025 iNFo Fair brought our NF community together with a powerful theme: 

Be Proactive, Be Informed, Be Heard.  

The day was filled with learning, honest conversations, and connections. We welcomed families, care partners, clinicians, and advocates to share experiences and ask real questions about living with NF.  

We opened the morning by sharing what brought us here and what we hoped to learn. Then we moved on to our parent panel, where we heard about being proactive with children in their medical, education, and advocacy efforts.  

Experts shared their insights, and we had engaging conversations about real choices like imaging, genetic testing, and speaking up in medical settings. Every session gave something useful to take home and apply to our lives. 

This is the heart of NF Midwest. When families feel informed and supported, we feel less alone. 

You help make days like this possible!

Your kindness, participation, and support are the reason families across the Midwest have a place to learn and feel understood. Thank you for being part of this community!

THANK YOU TO OUR INFO FAIR SPONSORS
