Live from GiGi's Playhouse Orange County!

Teen Tastic is about so much more than games and themed activities. Programs like these create opportunities for teens with Down syndrome to build friendships, strengthen social skills, grow their confidence, and experience the joy of belonging in a community that celebrates them exactly as they are. 💙💛 ​

"It was Derby Days at Teen Tastic last month and the fun was off to the races. Our teens decorated derby hats, cheered on horse races, laughed with friends, and had an absolute blast together."

A sibling's biggest fan.​

This heartwarming video from shows that having a sibling with Down syndrome doesn't diminish family relationships; it often creates some of the strongest ones.​

​At GiGi's Playhouse, we see these special bonds every day. Through free programs and resources, we don't just support individuals with Down syndrome; we support the entire family: parents, grandparents, and siblings.​

Inclusion is more than an empty buzzword; true inclusion means creating environments where EVERY individual feels valued and empowered to contribute.​

While it may sound simple in theory, creating truly inclusive environments isn't easy; that's where GiGi's Playhouse comes in. ​

Through our free, accessible programs, we make sure every individual with Down syndrome is supported. But more than that, we also invite community members into our Playhouse walls to see firsthand how valuable individuals with Down syndrome are.​

She came to GiGi’s with a dream… and she’s actively building it. ​

​When Abigail joined GiGi's Playhouse Nashville, she shared that she wanted to become a teacher. Since then, Abigail's been doing more than just attending free programs; she's been actively working toward that goal!​

​Now, she's stepping into a role as a volunteer math tutor, and this fall, she'll take her next big step toward that dream. ​

Read Abigail’s full story (and find out where she’s headed next) in our June newsletter: https://ow.ly/3Uy650ZeH7E
