Let’s make the future brighter together

The Association de la neurofibromatose du Québec (ANFQ) is a non-profit organization founded in 1989. Since the very beginning, we have offered support to people with neurofibromatosis and their families. We aim to unite, inform and engage with an empowered and dynamic NF community, giving them access to the services they need to improve their conditions and quality of life. Leadership, collaboration, courage and empathy are at the heart of our values. Together, let’s put an end to NF!

Encourage research

Animate and encourage a medical and scientific community that is passionate about NF.

Simplify access to pediatric treatments
