    Acerca de

    ASF is the leading independent non-profit organization in the United States serving and giving a voice to the Alport Syndrome community.

    Alport Syndrome is a rare genetic kidney disease that causes kidney failure, hearing loss and vision problems. Fifty percent (50%) of boys with the predominant form of the disease will experience kidney failure by age 25 and 90% by age 40, most often preceded by hearing loss. Girls are affected too, with some impacted similarly to boys, but most having a later disease progression.
