Review for Association Of Birth Defect Children, Inc. dba Birth Defect Research for Children, Orlando, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I find that this organization provides the ultimate in assistance and research as it relates to children with birth defects. I participated in the Registry of the children of Vietnam Veterans with birth defects and have knowledge of the Registry's results and how it is used to further the public and government knowledge of the tragic results of our exposure to toxic herbicides. The relationship of this organization to its "followers" is one of trust in that we know that our problems are looked at with care, concern and that their research is real and will provide and and solutions to our issues.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the areas of advocacy for children with birth defects. I have witnessed their presentations before government agencies such as the National Academy of Sciences/Institute of Medicine. These presentations of birth defects were of top notch quality which clearly showed that their knowledge of birth defects could not be outdone.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

try to expand their outreach to as many groups and inf=dividuals that could benefit from their knowledge.
