Due to the increase in Covid cases and the rapid spread of the Omicron variant the Many Faces of Moebius Syndrome has decided to suspend our planned larger scale public Moebius Syndrome Awareness Day events until a more suitable time in the future when it is safer.

There are planned family and friends MSAD gatherings in: Kansas USA, Pennsylvania USA, California USA, Massachusetts USA, Michigan USA, New York USA, Alabama USA, Georgia USA, Arkansas USA, Canada, England, and Australia. We will have photos and hopefully videos of these events on our Many Faces of Moebius Syndrome Facebook page.
