Some of the sessions will be recorded and uploaded to ypahd.ca and YPAHD social media channels, so if you are unable to attend, you can still take in a variety of the presentations after the event. Whether this will be your first YPAHD Day or you are a YPAHD Day veteran, we can’t wait for you to experience the power of sharing experiences with other youth (ages 14-35) who are affected by Huntington disease.

Young People Affected by Huntington disease (YPAHD) Day is a one-day conference designed specifically for youth affected by HD (14-35 years of age). Youth from across the country gather regionally to learn about genetic testing, family planning, caring for someone with HD, navigating relationships, think about event planning during the round table discussions and more! YPAHD Day will be educational, fun and interactive. It will help forge new friendships and strengthen those support systems that mean everything to YPAHD members.
