Dash Team Highlight: Milwaukee Playhouse Team – Grace!

Who inspired this team and what makes them EXTRA awesome? Grace is courageous and funny.

What is your favorite part of attending programs and events at GiGi’s Milwaukee? Having fun!

What does acceptance mean to you and how do you want to encourage our community (and the world) to be more accepting? Assuming competence and not limiting potential. The encouragement is living confidently and crushing stereotypes.

What Programs would you like to see more of at GiGi’s Playhouse Milwaukee? Social skills and camps.

Tell us about what you would like to see at GiGi’s or have GiGi’s offer as a support to the community. All of the age-appropriate programs seem to meet the needs of the champions who attend.

Join Grace and her friends at the Dash for Down Syndrome on May 5th at Lake Park – sign up today!
