Our Programs
Our programs, services and supports help create a brighter future for people with Down syndrome.
A visionary initiative aimed at fostering a supportive and inclusive learning environment where young people with Down syndrome thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
Our comprehensive Primary and Secondary School Support Program is designed to benefit both mainstream and special schools. The program's core objectives are to strengthen the capacity of school teachers, principals, and School Learning Support Officers (SLSOs) and to foster strong connections among key stakeholders, including families, therapists, and behavior support specialists, all with a focus on putting the student at the centre.
Our mission is to create a nurturing and empowering environment for everyone touched by Down syndrome. By fostering connections, providing resources, and promoting advocacy, we aim to empower individuals with Down syndrome and their families to lead fulfilling lives.
