New Quarterly Data Reports – April 2025

Feel free to share this resource with medical providers, educators, and family members who might find it helpful.

The Simons Searchlight Team

Our latest April 2025 Quarterly Reports feature fresh insights from Simons Searchlight participants across 72 genetic communities—including 4 new groups! (full list below).

About This Report

This report highlights updated data from families who continue to share their experiences through Simons Searchlight. In this quarter’s special spotlight, we take a closer look at developmental progress using the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (Vineland-3).

The Vineland-3 survey helps us understand skills related to:

  • Communication
  • Daily living and self-care
  • Socialization
  • Motor skills (for younger children)

The growth charts in the report illustrate how abilities vary across ages, offering a visual overview of developmental patterns over time. Please note: Only communities with enough completed Vineland surveys will see this spotlight included. Watch this quick tutorial video to learn how to read the charts and better understand the range of abilities by age for your genetic community.

Thank you to the families who make these reports possible! Your continued participation plays a vital role in advancing research and improving care.
