Description du poste:

This social work role will be an endowment-funded position for the Craniofacial/22Q clinic. Seattle Children's Craniofacial Clinic is a nationally recognized program dedicated to caring for children with cleft lip and palate, craniosynostosis, and a wide range of complex craniofacial differences.

The Seattle Children's 22q Clinic provides specialized, comprehensive care for children with genetic differences in the q11.2 region of chromosome 22.
