ABOUT US
Dylann’s Dash was inspired and created in dedication to a little girl who was born with arthrogryposis. This rare congenital condition occurs in about 1 in every 3000 live births.
Due to how rare the condition is, there haven’t historically been funds put towards raising awareness and support in the communities. AMCSI is a non-profit organization that was created to do just this. Dylanns Dash is also working to increase MN support by raising funds to help with financial hardships that individuals may experience in accessing the care they need. As Dylann's Dash has grown, we have also donated to Shriners Hospital MN and Philadelphia.

We were told Dylann would never walk. Through the support of other families and attending a conference, we met our current MD who has made it possible for Dylann to have taken her first independent steps April 6th, 2018!
