Support Children with Autism and Rare Genetic Disorders

Many children with TANC2 syndrome also have autism spectrum features. Your support helps families navigate both challenges.

TANC2 syndrome is an ultra-rare genetic disorder affecting only 33+ known individuals worldwide. Many children with TANC2 mutations also present with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) features, creating unique challenges for families. These children face a dual burden: the rare genetic condition itself and the autism-related symptoms that significantly impact their daily lives. Your support provides critical resources for families dealing with both TANC2 syndrome and autism, funding research that could unlock treatments for both conditions.
