Did you know...

One of every 180 babies is born with a chromosome abnormality, and there is currently no known cause or cure. It could happen to any child. Children born with chromosome 18 conditions, like children with Down syndrome or other chromosome changes, were at one time simply institutionalized. Medical advances in recent years have enabled us to better understand and treat these conditions, but there is still much more research to be done.  

The Chromosome 18 Registry & Research Society is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization funded by contributions from individuals, businesses and philanthropic foundations. Without their support, we would not be able to conduct the research that has lead to many breakthroughs. Along with promoting research efforts, we also help individuals with chromosome 18 abnormalities overcome the challenges they face so that they might lead happy, healthy and productive lives. Your support can and will make a difference.

2014 marks the 24th anniversary of the Chromosome 18 Registry & Research Society.  Please celebrate with us by helping us to conquer chromosome 18 conditions.  Your participation in the Chromosome 18 Registry & Research Society Annual Golf Tournament will support research: research that is critical to understanding, treating, and even curing chromosome 18 conditions.  We hope to see you on the course!
