With the Many Hands Award, we take a moment to recognize those in Connecticut who have touched our lives most deeply through their actions.
Support for individuals who live with Down syndrome comes in many forms – kindness, advocacy, instruction, inclusion – and from many sources – family members, neighbors, teachers, business owners, medical professionals.
Nominations for the awards are accepted annually in October during Down Syndrome Awareness Month. Winners are announced on World Down Syndrome Day.
