The NFXF Western Massachusetts Chapter set a goal to make connections with Fragile X community members outside of their local area. Chapter leader, Denise Devine, took to the road and organized a gathering at a local Bistro in Waltham, MA. Denise said the evening included “great food and company”! The lively discussion included sharing of ideas and programs.
