About Us
Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome Australia (SDSA), a
non-profit organisation, was incorporated in 1997. Our group is dedicated to
assisting families through mutual sharing of experiences and working
together with the medical community to improve treatment for our
children/adults with this syndrome.
SDSA Goals:
 |
Provide information and support to people
with SDS and to their families.
|
 |
Find others with SDS and develop a
database for research.
|
 |
Develop community awareness by promotion
and information sharing.
|
 |
Educate the medical profession about this
little known symdrome so that children can be diagnosed sooner and given
suitable treatment.
|
 |
Continue to raise money to keep the group
established, publish literature about the syndrome and contribute to
research into the causes and the gene that causes SDS |
