The mission of the New Jersey Rett Syndrome Association is to contribute towards an improved quality of life for girls and women affected by Rett Syndrome, support families dealing with the disorder, increase awareness and support ongoing research for treatment and cure of Rett syndrome. We believe that by raising public awareness of Rett Syndrome we can foster public attitudes conducive to early diagnosis, intervention and treatment of our children as we encourage and support research for the cure of Rett Syndrome. We hope this website will link local families together, help provide some of the resources we all need for our children and keep everyone informed of the many events and activities in NJ. Please send us your pictures, videos and stories to share and contact us if you have ideas for something you would like to see added.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Leslie Greenfield Founder, Executive Director and Heather’s mom
Rett Gala
We are sad not to be able to be with everyone tonight, but hope you will join us virtually at 12:00 this afternoon at virtual Rett Gala as we honor our our girls and thank our awesome volunteers. New Jersey families have been supporting Rett syndrome research with many events over the past 30 years raising over $2,000,000.00. NJRSA was established in 2007 and since then, has given 908,000.00 to the research funds at International Rett Syndrome Foundation and Rett Syndrome Research Trust and the Rett Center at Montefiore. We could not have done it without the help of all of you and especially people we are honoring today as well as our past honorees.
So please take a few minutes to join us at the virtual Rett Gala and if you have not already made a donation, please consider any amount you can.
THANKS AGAIN!!
