The Prader-Willi Syndrome Better Living Foundation (PWSBLF) is a not-for-profit organisation that was established in September 2013. Our purpose is to improve the quality of life for young people and adults living with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) and support the greater Prader-Willi Syndrome community.
The PWSBLF envisions that young people and adults with PWS should lead quality and rich lives, with equal opportunities to live independently and engage in their communities. By providing a range of services with a commitment to best practise, research, innovation, local and global expert collaborations, the PWSBLF is best positioned to address the existing inadequacies related to housing for adults with PWS.
