What We Do

Jerome Lejeune Foundation USA seeks to provide an abundant life for persons with genetic-based intellectual disabilities through a world-class model of care from the moment of pre-natal diagnosis to the end of a happy life. Underpinning this mission is our three-fold focus on research, care, and advocacy.

We are building a network of relationships and resources to serve those with genetic-based intellectual disabilities.

This 360° model of care will encompass specialized clinics, online resources, and a community of patients, parents, professionals, and partners. Let’s make it easy to Live Abundantly!

Why We Help

We serve those with genetic based intellectual disabilities because they are our family members, we love them, and we believe they are an essential and indispensable part of a flourishing and healthy society.

We envision a future where science is placed back in the service of human life. This reorientation becomes a reality when society uses science to provide the best medical care and an abundant life for the most vulnerable. This is the legacy of Dr. Jerome Lejeune.
