October is Down Syndrome Acceptance Month

October 19, 2016

How beautiful it is to see how a united community can bring about change. During the first few days of the month of October, I have seen the media advocating for Down syndrome. It has been amazing to see how united as one our voices are heard and the month of October is being proclaimed in many parts of the country as Down syndrome Awareness Month.

Change and acceptance is what our future generation will see. And it is all because of people who have beautiful hearts and dreams that make things like this happen.
