PANS/PANDAS Awareness event is on Saturday, 12 October, at 10am! Join us for a 5K fun run and walk along in Burlington to raise awareness for PANS/PANDAS here in Vermont—an often-overlooked autoimmune disorder said to affect 1 in 200 children. We're calling on our amazing citizens of Vermont to join us in raising awareness and making the first steps towards change and healing.

PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal infections) occurs when a child's immune response to an infection causes inflammation in the brain. The inflammation can cause the sudden onset of behavioral, neurological, and personality changes. The effects of PANS/PANDAS on children and their families are devastating—yet these conditions are still relatively unknown in Vermont, making diagnosis and treatment extremely difficult.
