CureGRIN Foundation

CureGRIN Foundation is a small, parent-run charity organization based in Parker, Colorado. With a team of five employees, the organization focuses its efforts on improving the lives of individuals and families affected by GRI Disorders (GRIA, GRID, GRIK, and GRIN) worldwide. CureGRIN Foundation works to better the lives of those living with GRI Disorders through a multi-pronged approach: research, education, and support. They actively collaborate with scientists and medical professionals to advance patient-centered research aimed at developing effective treatments and ultimately cures for GRI Disorders. GRI Disorders, while rare, present significant challenges for patients and their families. These genetic conditions, related to ionotropic glutamate receptors crucial for learning, memory, and other essential biological functions, often lead to severe life-limiting consequences. Many individuals with GRI Disorders face challenges with communication, mobility, and self-care, often experiencing uncontrollable and treatment-resistant seizures.
