Resources for the craniofacial community
myFace Expands to Chicago!
Hi, my name is Rena Rosen, myFace’s new Senior Program Officer in Chicago!
Whether you’re from Lincolnshire, the South Side or anywhere in the region, I’m here to help you and your family find the resources, support and community you need.
As someone with a rare Craniofacial Syndrome, I know that it can often feel isolating. I was born and raised in Chicago, a patient at Children’s Memorial (now Lurie’s). My family and I traveled this lonely road of craniofacial difference with no map or guide, and it wasn’t easy. I wish we’d had myFace’s support when I was growing up!
I’m thrilled to have this opportunity to support you at every step of your journey, right here in my hometown. Please reach out to receive info about our local support groups, resources and community events like bowling, pizza night, and maybe even a boat trip down the Chicago River! I can’t wait to welcome you into this incredible community.
Feel free to reach out with any questions: Rena@myface.org or (312) 429-6505
