321 Days of Acceptance | We are Generation G

March 21st is recognized each year as World Down Syndrome Day. The date (3:21) represents the third copy of the 21st chromosome. On this day, communities all over the world celebrate how we are working together to expand awareness and acceptance for people with Down syndrome. We are Generation G.
