The Sturge-Weber Foundation

We are here to improve the quality of life and care for families with the rare disease Sturge-Weber syndrome and associated PWB and KT conditions.

What is Sturge-Weber syndrome? Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare disease caused by a GNAQ gene mutation that is present at birth. One in 20,000-50,000 children will be born with SWS each year. This disorder is not inherited and causes a birthmark on the face, glaucoma, epileptic seizures, and developmental disabilities. Each case of SWS is unique, with varying degrees of progressive medical issues. Research is essential so doctors may improve care and quality of life.
