Who We Are
We’re a growing community of researchers, parents, and people living with a 3q29 condition.
Until 2005, no one had even heard of 3q29 deletion or duplication. Very little information was available about what to expect upon diagnosis. In truth, we still don’t know as much as we’d like - but we’re working on it. And we’re determined to make it easier for you to get the knowledge, resources, and connection you need in one place.
