The Hydrocephalus Association
The Hydrocephalus Association was founded in 1983, incorporated as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) in 1986, is governed by a Board of Directors, and employs an Executive Director, Assistant Director, Outreach Director, and Director of NPH and Older Adult Services. Twenty prominent medical professionals actively serve on our Medical Advisory Board.

Our mission is to provide support, education and advocacy for individuals, families and professionals.

  • Ongoing quality health care

    We provide a wealth of services and resources to our members and non-members alike.
