Testimonials
What Our Members Say
"The SLOS group has been so valuable because of the SLO physicians and conferences. AND the contact with other families is so needed."
"Our favorite things about the Foundation are the conferences where we are able to meet other families who share the same struggles. We appreciate the guest speakers and specialists who can help our children and they give us hope to help advocate for our daughter."
"We enjoy the connection to other families in similar situations to ourselves. We enjoy the conferences and any new information given by our doctors, scientists and specialists. Our 3 youngest all have Smith Lemli Opitz syndrome, from the left Aaron and Sean (fraternal twins), and Kyle."
