Theater Artists to Raise Awareness for Children with Rare Birth Defect

June 01st, 2007 | Category: Medical

Caleb was born with CdLS, a rare genetic condition that affects at least 10,000 Americans. As little as 25 years ago, diagnosis of CdLS was difficult and often delayed. The prognosis was dire.

The CdLS Foundation is a family support organization whose mission includes ensuring early and accurate diagnosis of CdLS. The Foundation also promotes research into the causes and manifestations of the syndrome and helps people with a diagnosis of CdLS and others with similar characteristics make informed decisions throughout their lifetime. Established in 1981, the Foundation is the only United States organization that meets this need.

For information about CdLS, contact the Foundation at 1-800-753-2357 or visit their website at http://www.cdlsusa.org/>
