PLAN YOUR VACATION

Minnesota is a beautiful location to visit in the summer! The state contains more than 10,000 lakes including Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes. The state capital, St. Paul, and neighboring Minneapolis make up the Twin Cities, featuring a variety of museums, diverse restaurants, pro sports teams, award-winning theater, a booming craft beer scene, and Mall of America, the largest indoor mall in North America. There are many great outdoor adventures including hiking, biking, ATV trails and water sports. 

Why should YOU attend the conference? Listen to what these attendees at the 2022 conference shared about their experience.

“The very best part of this conference was being able to connect with our

people! Watching the Moebius family share joy and pain, hugs, smiles from

their hearts, and a level of acceptance unknown in their everyday lives was

priceless and unforgettable.”

“This past weekend, we spent every second, every minute, and every hour

with NO judgment, NO stares, NO uncomfortableness. Every amazing

person we encountered just GOT it. They understood the struggles, the

setbacks, and the confusion associated with this syndrome, and they

listened and shared in every moment together. They also shared their

triumphs and victories, and we saw how talented each person is.”

“The Atlanta Moebius Syndrome Conference 2022 is in the books. It was a great time to see friends, make new ones, and watch our girl live her best life. We are grateful for these experiences and walk away a little wiser and

humbled by the depth of humanity in this amazing community.”

“I could go on and on about how this extraordinary convention has filled a void I didn’t even know was there. It doesn’t matter how many conferences we attend, there is always something new to gain and learn. We all truly get each other. There is no judgment, just genuine love, unlimited support, and true camaraderie.”
