The International Rett Syndrome Foundation is relentlessly pursuing a cure for Rett syndrome in the future while also providing unwavering support for families fighting Rett right now.
IRSF Has Been Changing the Game
IRSF Has Been Changing the Game
In our 38-year history, we have invested $54 million in Rett syndrome research.
Through the support of our donors, IRSF has been investing in projects that profoundly impact foundational Rett syndrome research, resulting in discoveries and partnerships critical to our mission of finding a cure. IRSF is advancing drugs and genetic approaches.
To find a cure for Rett syndrome, we have to give it everything we’ve got — for families, for children and for a future without Rett.
We’re ALL IN. No matter what it takes.
So we’ve set a bold goal: raise $29 million by 2024 to advance treatments and a cure for those with Rett syndrome.
We know this goal is possible, but not without your help.
Solutions for ALL
Rett is a complex disorder, and it shows up in many different ways. A one-size-fits-all approach to a cure would leave families around the world without hope. Your support empowers IRSF to continue our strategic pursuit of every promising lead to provide solutions for all.
Our three-pillar strategy:
Funding Critical Research
We carefully identify and fund game-changing, foundational Rett research, including the discovery of which gene causes Rett.
Creating a Robust Pipeline
We advance promising ideas from research to the therapeutic pipeline, accelerating solutions for every family battling Rett.
Ensure Clinical Trial Success
We collaborate with families, pharmaceutical companies, physicians and the FDA to eliminate obstacles to successful clinical trials.
Through our Center of Excellence Network, we’re ensuring care and therapies reach everyone living with Rett.
