Abstract
Fifteen participants representing clinicians and parents from Canada, the Netherlands, the UK, and the USA met in Miami on April 24–25, 2008 to attend a workshop that focused on facilitating family adjustment to a diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The workshop, sponsored by Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD), was organized in response to parent and clinician concerns that many families do not receive adequate psychosocial support following diagnosis. DMD is a complex multi-systemic medical condition with characteristics of both chronic and terminal disease [1,2].
