Mission Statement

Celebrating the lives of our children with Down syndrome and promoting inclusion in everyday life is our mission.

Description

The group meets regularly for informal social gatherings, as well as educational meetings. Up with Down provides local hospitals with New Parent Packets and, upon their request, personally visits new parents or contacts them by phone. The group also supplies local libraries with updated books on topics related to Down syndrome and provides area schools with information about inclusion and acceptance.
