SUMMARY:World Down Syndrome Day
DESCRIPTION:World Down Syndrome Day on March 21st gives people with Down Syndrome and their advocates a voice and an opportunity to be heard. It’s a day where we assemble and organize activities to promote public awareness for the genetic disorder. The goal is to educate others on the importance of supporting our friends and family who have directly and indirectly experienced life with Down syndrome. \n\n\n \n#WorldDownSyndromeDay\nDown syndrome is a naturally occurring chromosomal arrangement that has always been a part of the human condition. It exists in all regions globally and commonly affects learning styles\, physical characteristics\, and overall health. In order to ensure proper growth and development\, social learning programs support and integrate with anyone who has Down syndrome. \nEvery year\, their voices grow louder\, and they influence government policy\, becoming more empowered. Through events around the world\, people with Down syndrome can ensure their own advocacy and be included in their communities. \n\n\n \nHOW TO OBSERVE WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY\n\nCheck if your local school offers any volunteer opportunities in their Integrated Learning Center.\nJoin local events or share yours.\nJoin their #LotsOfSocks fundraising campaign.\nCreate your own fundraising campaign.
