community offering
The Down Syndrome Foundation is embarking on an active programme of identifying and cooperating with local organizations that do innovative, effective work in the field of Down syndrome. We are interested in researching and identifying local needs and identifying strong organizations that work with people of all ages who live with Down syndrome.
We choose our community partners carefully to align and work closely with organizations that bring an original approach to Down syndrome and provide an important model that other groups can learn from.
The Down Syndrome Foundation will provide relevant research capability and data, financial support, in-kind resources, and other forms of assistance to support community partners which demonstrate expertise and ingenuity.
Please be in touch with us if:
