The SYNGAP1 Foundation Partners with Unite Us to Address Unmet Needs of SYNGAP1 Families and Improve Quality of Life

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The SYNGAP1 Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to improving the lives of families affected by SYNGAP1-related Disorders and a member of The Child Neurology Foundation (CNF), partnered with Unite Us, the nation's leading software company enabling cross-sector collaboration to improve people's health and wellbeing, to fill a gap reported by families in the Child Neurology Foundation's network. This partnership is a coordinated effort to build the ease of connection between patients and family support organizations. Through the partnership, The SYNGAP1 Foundation and Unite Us aim to address the unmet social needs of people and families nationwide.

CNF partnered with Unite Us in March of 2022 to connect families in the CNF network to vital resources and has now sponsored the SYNGAP1Foundation to connect more families to community-based resources.

"We've heard directly from families in our network that they help sort through and connect with the resources that might be available to them," said CNF Executive Director and CEO Amy Brin. "After learning how Unite Us has been providing increased access to health and community-based organizations across the country, we knew we wanted to partner in creating this new resource for our network."
