LND Famiglie Italiane

Families with children or grown-ups who carry the syndrome have very special needs, often different from those taken into care in the usual social services projects, planned for people with more common disabilities.

Our Association promotes real integration for these wonderful people, through its commitment in raising awareness and in working with public and private sector health and social assistance agencies.
Their life is only possible through our joint effort in using all the resources in our territories and in overcoming prejudices and lack of information that are still associated with this condition.
The goals of the Association are more thoroughly explained in our Charter. As in all ONLUS's, democracy and eligibility of every member to all the positions are key principles in the Association.
To be part of the Association is for the families a way to communicate and to come out of the isolation that even the sheer rarity of the symptoms may induce. For volunteers, it is a way to increase families potential, to help raise awareness on the condition and to support initiatives.
