Children's Choanal Atresia Foundation mission is to support awareness thus improve diagnosis, research to improve treatment and care, and research to identify possible genetic links and possible long term developmental issues. Choanal atresia is a birth defect that impairs a newborn infant’s ability to breathe. According to the NIH/CDC each year over 750 newborn infants suffocate to death before they reach 27 days of age and are termed SIDS incidents. Some of these deaths may be due to undiagnosed CA. The Foundation also provides Parent-to-Parent support through our “Angel Network” which began in 1989.
