About Us

With a family history of this ultra-rare disease, Nathan and Allison Peck, founders of Cure VCP Disease, were aware of the difficult road ahead as Nathan began exhibiting symptoms of the disease. They knew that if his symptoms were anything like his mother’s, Nathan would slowly lose the ability to walk and care for himself. He also would need periodic check-ups to test for other conditions, including bone disease, ALS, and dementia. Despite this haunting diagnosis, Nathan and Allison remained focused on the fact they had two choices: stand by idly, overcome with hopelessness, or fight. Refusing to accept defeat, Nathan and Allison launched Cure VCP Disease. 
 
With support from family members and patients worldwide, the Cure VCP Disease team has empowered patients, giving a voice to those who have suffered in silence. In a fight against time, Cure VCP Disease Inc. has put the world on notice: "It's Our Time to Fight Back." 
 
Since its founding, Cure VCP Disease has worked tirelessly to raise awareness, unite the world's leading researchers, and create unprecedented collaboration to develop a cure for diseases caused by the VCP gene. Step by step, discovery by discovery, our small team has grown with unrelenting momentum to stop this cycle of illness for the next generation.
