Our mission is to our families in the Southern California area who have been affected by Fragile X Syndrome and associated disorders.  Fragile X is the leading cause of inherited intellectual disability and the leading known single gene cause of autism.  We provide information and  host educational programs for professionals and families to learn how to effectively educate and assist those children and adults who have Fragile X Syndrome.  We also have family fun days such as bowling, drumming and picnics to bring families together in a safe and fun environment.  We support and fund for research into effective treatments and therapies.  We  connect and provide support to families across the United States through our online social media sites.
