Today is the Down Syndrome Walk! Good luck to the hundreds of people who will be gathering at events across the country to show that our communities are stronger when everyone is included!

If you can't attend an event, please consider showing your support for the Down syndrome community by making a donation at DownSyndromeWalk.ca.

We will raise our voices together until misconceptions about Down syndrome are confronted and society embraces that every life is a life worth living.
