Our Mission
Welcome to SBF-Forum, a diverse community dedicated to the cause of preventing spina bifida and other serious neural tube birth defects caused by a simple lack of dietary folic acid (SB-F). We also support care for spina bifida patients.
We offer resources for heath care professionals, policy makers, volunteers, and anyone interested in prevention, including a library of information, links to related studies, public and private chats, and a main forum organized in categorical sub-forums by group or topic.
