CHASER specializes in children born with congenital heart defects (CHD), "in utero to adult", and also acquired heart disease in infants and children. The primary purpose of the organization is to offer parents, professionals and patients, resources that may help these individuals in their dealings with financial, educational, medical, emotional and other issues that may concern them. CHASER is in essence working to fill a void which exists for many. CHASER collects information nationwide from a variety of clearinghouses, organizations, professionals, and the family. CHASER itself can be a clearinghouse of information for all. From heart defects to syndromes accompanied by heart disorders - from feeding to surgery and beyond - CHASER strives toward finding and linking the family to the "help".
