Victory for Those Living With Spina Bifida

The Spina Bifida Association of America (SBAA), the Spina Bifida Foundation (SBF) and the 70,000 people in the United States who live with Spina Bifida extend their gratitude to the members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives for passing the "Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities Prevention Act of 2003." Passage of this momentous legislation will ensure tremendous advances in preventing Spina Bifida and improving the quality of life for the adults and children living with Spina Bifida and those whose lives are entwined in theirs.

The Spina Bifida Association of America (SBAA) is the only national voluntary health agency working exclusively for people with Spina Bifida and their families through education, advocacy, research and service.

Founded in 1973, the mission of SBAA is to promote the prevention of Spina Bifida and to enhance the lives of all affected.   SBAA has, through its network of chapters, a presence in more than 120 communities nationwide.#
