Throughout the year, we will honor our legacy with all of our community by celebrating our milestones and exploring what has been accomplished over the past four decades.
The Hydrocephalus Association began as a parent support group with an initial gathering in 1983 in San Francisco, CA. Now, HA has a national presence as the leading provider of educational resources, support, and advocacy for our community. HA is the largest non-profit, non-governmental funder of hydrocephalus research in the U.S. We have significantly impacted the healthcare and scientific communities as well as the lives of individuals impacted by the condition. HA's rich history is what drives our core values and mission today.
Stay tuned on our blog, social media, and emails for more exciting events surrounding our 40th anniversary and ways you can join us in celebrating!
