Classified as a rare cholestatic liver disease, this syndrome affects one out of 30,000 live births.

Alagille Syndrome has a wide spectrum of severity from very mild to fatal, each person having a unique version.
Burden of disease for ALGS can be very heavy and so the ALGSA supports families in many ways including meaningful family programs like disease education, financial assistance, support pages, a holiday adoption program, and more. The ALGSA also has a large presence in ALGS science, working to support scientific understanding and advancements in research to find better treatments and one day, the cure.
