“A facial birth defect doesn’t get in the way of achievement. Parents need to instill a positive sense of self-esteem in their children so they can pursue their dreams.”

“[The CPF website] was, and still is, such an encourgement to me…I know the stories gave me such a drive to get through the unknowns…your site is such a blessing to my life…”
                              —Simone

“Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the informational material. We will be well educated before the birth of our twins. Thank you.”
                     —Christine & Eric

“The materials you sent were wonderful, thank you so very much! I started reading and did not put the articles down until I had read everything you had sent me. As I read, I could identify many of the situations and feelings listed in the articles. Please disseminate this material to as many people as you can reach.”
                              — Gerald
