June 2023 marks the 7th year that our mom Lesa, passed away from CJD. Our family continues to support the CJD Foundation that helped us through the most horrific time of our lives while also advocting and meeting new families that are afftected. We will continue to share Lesa's story and support other families who are still either navigating this disease or facing the afternath this disease creates. 

We hope you can join us and many other families in Colorado that need your love and support to continue the fight for a cure for CJD and all other prion diseases.

About Strides for CJD

Strides for CJD is an annual walk/run to raise awareness of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a rare neurodegenerative disease that has no treatment or cure. Through this event, anyone -- anywhere -- can pay tribute to their loved ones and raise funds for the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization.

Funds raised support our programs including:

  • Our 24/7 helpline, support groups, conference, and other family programs throughout the year.
  • Research grants to help scientists make important discoveries and bring us closer to a cure.
  • Medical education to help raise awareness and understanding of prion disease.
