On behalf of the ACLAPA Executive Council, we welcome you to our new website which offers both visitors and members a great deal of information and functionality. We hope to, in time have this website as a repository of high quality information, articles and discussions surrounding the medical areas of cleft lips and palate disorders.

Please note as the site is new, we're in the process of organising and uploading information. You may come across some links that have not yet been fully populated with information, we hope to have the site fully functional in just a few weeks.

We would also like to encourage all members of the Association, and other professionals involved in the management of persons with cleft and/or craniofacial anomalies, to attend the 2011 scientific meeting as well as support the Speech Pathology, Orthodontic and ENT preconference symposiums and working groups.
