Local resources

 

Local organizations and professionals familiar with Williams syndrome and related issues are important resources.

To be listed here, service providers must be recommended by other families of individuals with Williams syndrome. These professionals either have direct expertise with Williams syndrome, or have provided excellent service to people with WS in the course of their standard practice.

In addition to direct service providers, it is important to have the right information for your locale since most organizations, agencies and regulations are administered at a local level. Many national organziations also have local offices and/or contacts in your area. Having local contacts for information can make your search for support much easier.

These local resources are listed here under the following headings.

If the services you are looking for, or the location you are residing in, are not listed here, please contact your Regional Co-Chair in person for further assistance.
