The Power of Together: Improving the health of people with intellectual disability

Join the National Centre of Excellence in Intellectual Disability Health for an Inspiring Webinar: The Power of Together!

Getting good genetic health care is important to improve health care for people with intellectual disability.

Genetic health care is for people who have or might have a genetic condition. A genetic condition happens if a gene changes. Genes are things in your body that make you the way you are.
