WHO WE ARE
The COMPPASS Registry was born out of a deep commitment to creating a global movement that unites families, healthcare professionals, and researchers. Recognizing the need for better understanding and support, we set out to build a platform where insights can be shared, challenges addressed, and collaborative efforts driven to create meaningful change.
