Chromosome Disorder Leaflets from Unique-They have been collecting information about specific chromosome disorders in their comprehensive offline database for nearly 25 years and since 2003 have spent many thousands of hours producing family-friendly, medically-verified, disorder-specific information leaflets. These leaflets are dynamic documents and will be updated as new information becomes available. New leaflets about other chromosome disorders will be coming on stream all the time. Web version and print versions available. Very helpful as handouts for teachers, therapists and family members. http://www.rarechromo.org/forum/DisordersLeaflets.asp
