All CARES services are provided free of charge or at a nominal fee to anyone requesting them. These include: one-on-one support for affected individuals and their families; research grants and participant recruiting for qualifying researchers for treatments and a cure; educational conferences for individuals, their families, and health care professionals; educational tools for better living with CAH; monitoring of newborn screening in the US and support for development internationally; bi-annual newsletters; and physician referral service.
