This site is dedicated to the efforts of those people living with Huntington's Disease who have taken precious time out of their life to create awareness about the disease!  Whether it has been done at the local level through fund raising, support to others living with HD, through local or national media news coverage, or through their own personal documentary efforts, the rest of the HD community can not thank you enough!
 
Today with resources like YouTube and MySpace some wonderful video's are now on the Internet that you can use to help create your own awarness for Huntington's Disease.  Whether it be at school, at work, or with other relatives or your neighbors or friends, directing them to anyone one of the video's  on this website will probably do more to educate them in a few minutes then anything you've tried before.
 
Remember anyone with a video camera can make their own HD documentary to share and to help create awareness for Huntington's Disease.  If you make a video you'd like to share, please email me Jean Miller.
