The Down Syndrome Connection of the Bay Area is a Bay Area non-profit organization passionate and dedicated to encouraging the unlimited potential in children and adults with Down syndrome since 1998. It consists of a group of caring individuals, educators, therapists, and involved community members whose passion and commitment is to serve families with members born with Down syndrome. We do this through education, advocacy, support groups for the entire family, and developmental-based classes for babies, children, teens, and adults. Our goal is to enrich children's and adults' lives through pre-academic, academic, language skills and social/behavioral interaction, ultimately preparing them for community integration as valuable participants and contributors.

Mission Statement

To empower, inspire and support people with Down Syndrome, their families and the community that serves them, while fostering awareness and acceptance in all areas of life.
