Supporting Families. Saving Lives.

This kit provides valuable tools to help you organize the process of notifying and gathering information from your relatives.This will help identify family members who need to be screened and could save a life. We hope you will encourage all of your relatives to connect with the SADS Foundation for help and support!
First, fill out the Family Members to Contact list by entering the names of relatives, living or deceased. Use this list as a guide to help you know who to contact for more information.
Next, complete a Short Questionnaire and make sure you are informed about SADS conditions. You have to start with yourself first!
Then contact other family members to get their information (we have a Family Notification Letter for you to use) and email or hand them the letter.
Make sure this data gets back to the SADS Foundation by calling us at 801-272-3023, faxing the forms to 801-505-0282, or scanning the information and emailing it to Marcia@sads.org.
