Mission
PAGER's mission is to:

• gather and disseminate information on pediatric gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and related disorders;
• provide educational and emotional support to patients with GER, their families, and professionals;
• promote greater awareness of GER within both the medical community and the general public; and
• promote research into the causes, treatments and eventual cure for pediatric GER.

• information parents share with each other can be just as valuable as medical advice
• pediatric GER may not be a single disorder and there may be many treatments that work for different children
• parents are the best judge of what works for their child and family, particularly when determining an acceptable quality of life for the child and the family
• parents are capable of sorting out relevant information, therefore, PAGER does not censor information that could possibly be useful - whether or not it is yet supported by research

• make sure that the public has a passing familiarity with GER and are aware that support is available
• produce parent-friendly written, video and electronic information on various aspects of caring for children with GERD and medical issues that are of concern to parents
• produce information about GER in special populations and more languages
• write a book on GERD for parents
• collaborate on more research studies
• have support networks available in every state
