The mission of the Tri-State Rett Syndrome Center at The Children’s Hospital at Montefiore (CHAM) is to provide state-of-the art services for patients with Rett Syndrome through intervention, education and research aimed at effective treatments and cures. The
Center was born out of the optimism
brought by the recent scientific
proof that even severe symptoms
of Rett syndrome can be reversed.
The core of our philosophy is our
conviction that these experimental
results will translate into successful
treatments.
We develop and maintain programs,
classes, research, and educational
symposia which contribute to
disease understanding and management
and to overall quality of life.
Through education and outreach
we hope to end the perception that
those with Rett Syndrome cannot
learn.
Our multidisciplinary team brings
together the work of physicians and
scientists from CHAM and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva
University, ensuring that both children and adults with Rett Syndrome
receive cutting edge, comprehensive, personalized care.
The Rett Syndrome Center at The Children’s Hospital at Montefiore (CHAM) is the proud central organizer of the Blue Sky Girls. This is an international, multi-site, ground breaking annual event designed to increase public awareness of Rett Syndrome.
