Family Support

In Alexandria, LA, the Prader-Willi Syndrome Association (PWSA) is dedicated to providing essential support for individuals diagnosed with Prader-Willi syndrome and their families. Our Family Support team offers a wealth of resources, including accurate information, parent mentoring, and nutritional education tailored to empower families from the moment of diagnosis. We are committed to assisting families with behavior management strategies, as well as navigating the often complex processes for applying for Medicaid, insurance, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). To access our services and connect with a supportive community, families are encouraged to use our online chapter locator or email us to join one of our Facebook Support Groups, ensuring they do not face this journey alone.
