Family Stories
Behind every screening result is a child, a family, and a story. Below are stories from families who have chosen to share their experience with newborn screening.
Newborn Screening Ontario (NSO) invites families who feel comfortable to share their newborn screening experience. Your story – whether a few sentences or something more detailed – may help other families feel supported and understand the importance of screening.
All stories are reviewed by NSO with care. By providing your story, you grant NSO permission to share it with staff, publish it on our website (without last names), and contact you in the future regarding potential media opportunities.
To send us your story, please complete our online form or email nso@cheo.on.ca.
