You're Invited!

We have some BIG news!! Some 932 square foot news! LADN is opening our first community gathering and office space in the heart of Pasadena’s playhouse district!

We are incredibly thrilled to be moving into our first physical space in Arcade Lane at 696 E. Colorado Blvd Suite 220! This new home will allow us to reach even more dysautonomia patients and caregivers and will give our community members a place to find comfort, care, and true belonging.

Los Angeles Dysautonomia Network (LADN) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing mental health, community, education, and financial support for individuals impacted by dysautonomia. LADN currently serves over 920 patients and caregivers in the Los Angeles and greater California area.

A physical home base for LADN will allow us to grow as both an organization and as a community! In addition to our continuing virtual programing, we'll also host in-person workshops, community hours, social events and more! These offices will also be a wonderful place for LADN staff to work!

We are working hard to make this space an accessible community hub where patients and caregivers can find resources and strength together. Through the power of community, no one has to face this illness alone. We hope you will consider making a donation to help us transform this space into a welcoming community gathering place in which to offer transformative support!

Your help would make a huge difference as we work to build a home for this continually growing community of patients and caregivers! We hope you will join us at our Housewarming on October 3rd from 4-7pm as we celebrate our new space!

We cannot wait for all of the fun we're going to have in this space! As always, thank you so much for being a part of the LADN community! We only exist because of the people who make up this community.

With gratitude and all the happy dances,

Sally & Emily
