About the organisation

The aim of this group is to provide information, friendship, and support to those who have a family member or friend with Cri du Chat syndrome or other anomaly of chromosome five.

The Cri du Chat Support Group of Australia is a voluntary group that originated in Melbourne.

While an unexpected diagnosis may feel frightening, we would like you to be inspired by the family stories that have been shared.
