A Celebration of Families and Hope

The SOFT Conference (Support Organization for Trisomy) is a unique annual event that brings together families affected by Trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome), Trisomy 13 (Patau Syndrome), Trisomy 9, and other related disorders. The conference is a place where families find support, share their children’s stories, honor our Angels, and connect with medical professionals who care deeply about our community.
