World HPP Day 2024 – Soft Bones

Together we can...

Submit a photo of you holding up the “Together we can…” sign to be featured on our social media page and annual collage! Email your photos to Info@SoftBones.org and tag us on social media!

World HPP Day is a time for the HPP community to come together and raise awareness about hypophosphatasia. Whether you’re living with HPP, a family member or friend, a caregiver, a researcher, or a healthcare professional we invite you to join us in fulfilling our mission.

Did you know that 2024 marks the 15th Anniversary of Soft Bones? On this World HPP Day, we celebrate the progress we’ve made but recognize how far we still have to go in understanding the impact of low alkaline phosphatase in the body.

This year’s theme is Together We Can.

“Together We Can” is a call to action that showcases the collective power of our community. TOGETHER WE CAN is a statement in itself. But also, it begs an answer – what can we do together?

Together we can EDUCATE!

Together we can IMPACT CHANGE!

Together we can CURE HPP!

There are many ways you can get involved. Learn more below.
