Welcome to #GenerationG – The Generation that’s Uniting Us

We’re divided. Individuals with disabilities have been separated and segregated from the rest of society. It starts in our schools but extends into the workplace and other areas of life. This division is no one’s fault. It’s been like this for generations upon generations. 

But #GenerationG is eliminating this division! 

Take the pledge and join the generation that’s creating a more accepting world!

#GenerationG: A conscious decision to be better every day.

GiGi’s Playhouse has served the Down syndrome community for over 22 years. Through our FREE programming, we’ve improved the lives of our participants and their families, but over the years, we’ve noticed something:  

The world doesn’t know how to interact with people with Down syndrome – and it’s not just individuals with Down syndrome, it’s everyone with a disability. 

That’s why we created #GenerationG. We’re not just leading a nationwide campaign; we’re leading the generation that will create a more accepting world for people with disabilities! 

Gen-G---Kira
