Texas Prader-Willi Association

Texas  Prader-Willi Association The Texas Prader-Willi Association was created to enhance the quality of loved ones living with PWS. We are available for support, education, and advocacy.

The Texas Prader-Willi Association was created by two East Texas mom's in the year 2010 and obtained our 501c3 non-profit status shortly after. Our passion was to enhance the quality of lives for all affected by Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) living in Texas. That same year these two east Texas mom's set out to start a Prader-Willi specific camp for our loved ones who have PWS. Who doesn't deserve to

enjoy the 'experience' of camp?! In keeping with PWS we chose "People With Smiles" Camp as our official camp name. Twelve years later we're still going strong. For more information regarding camp please visit our page: "People With Smiles Camp for Prader Willi Syndrome". You do not have to live in Texas to attend. Welcome!
