Support workshops are available in Gauteng, Limpopo, Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Free State
Cleft Friends helps parents and children affected by cleft lips and palates by providing support as soon as possible after birth through a parent support group network of moms and dads of cleft children who have the necessary training and hands-on experience. These amazing parents have walked the same road and want to share their stories of hope with others. It is the initial contact with another parent that makes all the difference. It sends a message of hope and relief in a traumatic situation. Our vision is to create awareness and educate communities about cleft lips and palates.
