Adult Premature Foundation

Welcome to the website of Stichting Adult Premature,

With our foundation we want to create a place for adult prematures where everyone can feel heard and understood. This foundation has been set up by prematures who stand for prematures and that is what we support in our mission and vision. Our website offers info about the long-term effects of premature birth, handling any complaints and assistance available. The information is based on scientific articles and various experts such as doctors, physiotherapists, psychologists etc. We are trying to make the texts accessible to everyone. So you can understand without medical education and share this with your treatment.
