Description
Fragile X syndrome is the leading hereditary cause of developmental disabilities in all populations. The absence of a functional fragile X gene shuts off production of a special protein in the brain needed for typical cognitive development. The spectrum ranges from learning disabilities to more severe cognitive issues and autism. Without this protein, children with the syndrome struggle to maximize their learning potential leveraging traditional methods, despite hours of individual instruction, therapy and rehabilitation
The GOAL of the Fragile X Technology Organization is to enhance the abilities of children and young people diagnosed with Fragile X
Our MISSION is to make available to young girls and boys innovative technology because of our belief that early introduction and use of these tools will lead to brighter and healthier futures for these kids
