Organization: The Duchenne Family Assistance Program

Bio: Kelly Maynard and Marissa Penrod are the co-founders of the Duchenne Family Assistance Program, affectionately referred to as “D-FAP”. Marissa and Kelly each have sons with Duchenne. The program has two key priorities – to offer families financial assistance with expenses related to the care of a child or young adult with Duchenne, and to provide help and expertise to families who need access to recommended treatments and equipment, clinical care, and social services.
