Angelman Organisations & Support Groups from around the World

​

International Angelman Day brings together AS organisations and families from around the world.  Depending on the legal regulations in each country, organisations vary in their structure and their objectives.

 

Most listed here are formally registered charities, others are informal parent support groups. Many countries do not yet have a registered charitable organisation/NGO, but we include and support all family groups, in all countries.
