Narrative

FACES assists families with travel to major medical centers where specialized craniofacial teams provide the safest and most advanced treatment for building a face and skull.

FACES, along with Face Equality International, of which FACES is a founding member, provides information and education to increase public understanding of craniofacial differences.

FACES provides free and unbiased information about the latest research and resources available on all types of craniofacial conditions.

FACES operates a summer camp designed for children and teens with facial differences. Campers foster independence by engaging socially and making friends with others who are experiencing similar issues.

FACES helps alleviate the emotional isolation that is often felt by patients and families by connecting them with others sharing similar medical situations
