Assistance Program
Duchenne Assistance Program
Walking Strong Assistance Program helps Duchenne families with their over-bearing medical needs that are most often not covered by insurance. To date, we have provided families with life-changing items such as a handicap accessible van, service dogs, Hoyer lifts, in-home ramps, alternative therapies, medical travel expenses, and on-line training courses for older Duchenne teens to help provide them with a career.

Duchenne Life-Coaching Program
Living with Duchenne as a patient, caregiver or sibling can be overwhelming. The Duchenne Mental Wellness Coach is life-changing and absolutely free. Paid for by our generous donors, this program is designed so recipients have a “coach in their back pocket 24/7.”
Our Mental Wellness Coaches are available to listen and be a safe outlet, while providing tools to navigate through life with Duchenne, as well as other personal and family challenges. This is a 6-month program that includes a 60 minute video call once a week as well as 24/7 text and voice messaging in between sessions. Recipients are never alone and without coaching and guidance. Their Coach is always available.
