Call Website

Fraser Valley Down Syndrome Society - FVDSS A local, parent-run, support group for families with children with Down syndrome. Monthly parent evening and several family events throughout the year!

We are a group made up of families from many different backgrounds but with a significant commonality. In each of our families there is at least one member who happens to have Down syndrome. This commonality has brought us together to form a unique and supportive community committed to sharing ideas, celebrating successes and helping one another through tough times. Please join us as we continue to grow and learn together.
