Decoding Darier’s presents the 2026 Walk for Darier’s! Join us on September 13, 2026, to raise awareness, celebrate our incredible community, and support Darier’s Disease research.
Whether you join us for a 5K stroll along the lakefront at the Lincoln Park Waveland Tennis Courts in Chicago, or participate virtually from anywhere in the world with friends and family – every step makes Darier’s disease more visible and reminds every warrior that they are never alone.
Host a local meetup, organize a birthday fundraiser, or ask your company to match donations.
