Lost? Overwhelmed? We’ve been there.

Our website is modelled on FAST HQ in the United States. While we share the same ethos and goals, we are separate entities connected through a Memorandum of Understanding.

While building our website, we wanted to both display and link to relevant content from FAST US, ensuring we provide the best information without unnecessary duplication. When US content is displayed on our site, we will acknowledge it. If you are redirected to the FAST US website, we will notify you. These links are also marked with an asterisk in the menu below.

For Australian-specific content, we will host dedicated pages so you can stay informed about what’s happening in the Australian landscape. In the rare disease world, we recognise that it’s smarter to leverage the expertise of the brightest minds and focus on areas where change is needed, rather than reinventing the wheel.

Here’s a sitemap (below), to orient yourself.

The ABOUT pages include all the basics about Angelman syndrome and FAST. Beyond that, there are four “doors,” leading into four rooms, organised for the different cohorts that make up FAST’s universe. Everyone is welcome to visit everyone else’s room 🙂
