We are a support group first and foremost. We strive to provide the latest information about AIS along with contact, and other forms of support to AIS adults as well as parents of AIS children and those with similar conditions.
Our goals
- To reduce the secrecy, stigma, and taboo surrounding AIS and other intersex states, by encouraging doctors, parents and society to be more open.
- To encourage the provision of psychological support within the medical system, for young people with AIS and their parents.
- To put parents and people with AIS in contact with each other and to encourage them to seek support and information.
- To increase the availability of information on AIS and related conditions from health professionals and the support group.
- To encourage improvements in treatment for vaginal hypoplasia and other effects of AIS.
Goals adapted from the work of the AISSG-UK group, and we sincerely appreciate them for their support in our new web site and listing them here.
