Family Support

In Slidell, LA, the Prader-Willi Syndrome Association (PWSA) is dedicated to providing vital support to individuals diagnosed with Prader-Willi Syndrome, along with their families and caregivers. Our Family Support team is committed to offering accurate information and comprehensive assistance at the critical moments following a diagnosis. We offer a range of services including personalized parent mentoring, nutritional education and meal planning, behavior management support, and guidance through the application and appeal processes for Medicaid, insurance coverage, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). To access our resources and support network, families can utilize our online chapter locator or reach out via email to join one of our supportive Facebook groups, ensuring that no one has to navigate this journey alone.
