ABOUT US
Mobility in Dystrophy (MIND) Trust is a nascent fellowship of the patients of Muscular Dystrophy (MD) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) in Kerala since May 1, 2017. MD and SMA are progressive genetic disorders ie., though the diseases may be localized to one part of the body in the beginning, it gradually spreads to other parts, leading finally to a complete cessation of physical movement.
MIND being an organisation led by persons with Muscular Dystrophy and Spinal Muscular Atrophy can be seen more like a family standing together fighting and setting a model for everyone in the society, clearly saying, Impossible is I’m possible. MIND aims to make an inclusive society where a person with a disability can lead a normal life without being seen as an alien.
