Overview of the disorders

About Cerebral Creatine Deficiencies

Creatine deficiencies account for an estimated 3.5% of all cases of undiagnosed cognitive disability and autism

Every day without adequate creatine is a day lost in the fight against brain damage, muscular loss, developmental delays and seizures

On average, it takes 7 years for families to get a diagnosis

If diagnosed at birth, 2 of the 3 creatine deficiencies can be treated and patients can experience typical growth and development

We need your support to make a difference for CCDS families now!

ACD is a parent-led rare, neurodegenerative disease non-profit on a mission to find a cure for creatine deficiencies (CCDS).

Support for our 2024 Symposium allows us to continue to fund life-changing research and unite our community in advocating and advancing actions that can lead to a cure or treatment.

AS A SPONSOR YOU WILL…

  • Supercharge your visibility in front of an international consortium of clinicians, researchers, policy makers and CCDS families.
  • Show your community how much you care about children battling a rare, neurodegenerative disease.
  • Make important connections that can elevate your business, both in person and online. Network with industry professionals, such as our university research and clinical partners below.
