Special interest group

Education & Advocacy

Lead: Nathan S. Rosenberg, MD

Education & Advocacy is the Society's newest group. It curates the Society's guidance for families and connects families with the clinicians and researchers who study posterior fossa syndrome.

What the group is building

Guidance for families

Plain-language pages for families before surgery and, soon, after a posterior fossa syndrome diagnosis. Guidance for families

Finding care

Regional guides to experienced surgical care, including the hospital resource map for the United States. Find hospitals in your region

Families: help shape this work

Family members of children with posterior fossa syndrome are warmly encouraged to take part. Tell us what information would have helped you, review new materials before they are published, and help us build a network of families who have been through this. The Society's Board includes a Family Advocate.

Get in touch

Families can also connect in the Posterior fossa syndrome parents group, a private Facebook group run by The Danny Green Fund.

Ask to join the family Facebook group

The Society cannot give advice about an individual child's care.

Clinicians and researchers

Members can contribute by reviewing family materials in their area of expertise, writing regional guides for their own countries, and sharing family resources from their centers.
