Mission Statement
Transforming Faces is a Canadian charity that provides free multidisciplinary cleft care for children and adults in developing countries.
We work in partnership with local cleft specialists and fund community-based medical teams. Through local capacity building, we aim to develop, facilitate and promote multidisciplinary cleft teams.
We advocate strongly for comprehensive cleft care, meaning wherever possible our local cleft teams include:
- audiologists
- dentists
- nurse co-ordinators
- orthodontists
- social workers
- speech therapists
- surgeons
Cleft lip and palate can be successfully treated using a comprehensive approach. Our partner teams provide multi-disciplinary cleft care, so that children can be socially accepted and lead a productive life.
Help us Close the Gap in Cleft Care!
