Throughout Down Syndrome Awareness Month, we’ve shared facts about chromosome 21, health screenings, and respectful language, but the ultimate message is about community and belonging. Individuals with Down syndrome attend school, work, vote, participate in decisions, and contribute to our communities in countless ways.

With quality education, healthcare, a strong home environment, and positive community encouragement, people with Down syndrome lead fulfilling, productive lives. They form meaningful relationships, date, marry, and experience the full range of human emotions.

Our advocacy doesn't end when the month finishes. You can support inclusion every day by: Using person-first language (saying "person with Down syndrome"). Respecting autonomy and celebrating individual strengths, talents, and independence. Using respectful terminology and condemning derogatory language.

As Rett Syndrome Awareness Month comes to a close, our commitment to understanding, inclusion, and support continues every single day. It is unique: Rett syndrome is caused by a genetic mutation, is non-degenerative, and affects all ethnicities, yet no two individuals are the same. Awareness month may be ending, but daily living support is year-round. If you or someone you know is interested in daily living services, the Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities Program at CHD is here to help.

Show your support for veterans by participating in Operation Green Light!

Every November, communities across the country find meaningful ways to honor the men and women who have served our nation. Flags are displayed. Names are read. Stories are shared. And on Veterans Day, Americans pause to say two simple words that carry a great deal of meaning: thank you.
But what if gratitude could also be seen from the road?
That is the idea behind Operation Green Light for Veterans.

Operation Green Light’s goal is to shine a light, show support, raise awareness and thank our Veterans. Now in its fifth year, Operation Green Light is a nationwide effort by counties, the National Association of Counties (NACo), and the National Association of County Veterans Service Officers.

CHD’s Union County Veterans Services Officer, Brian Blais, invites residents, businesses and other organizations to participate in Operation Green Light by simply changing one light bulb to a green bulb. This can be an exterior light that neighbors and visitors can see, or an interior light that sparks a conversation with friends. By shining a green light, we let our veterans know that they are seen, appreciated and supported.

Don’t have a green light? Stop by CHD for a free green light bulb (while supplies last). It’s a simple way to show your appreciation and support for the brave men and women who have served our country.
