SUMMARY:World Down Syndrome Day Gala
DESCRIPTION:Please join us as we celebrate World Down Syndrome Day and mark the 40th anniversary of the Down Syndrome Association of Connecticut (DS ACT). \nThe Connecticut Down Syndrome Congress (CDSC) was founded in 1986 by a compassionate physician and dedicated parents who sought to create advocacy and social support for individuals with Down syndrome and their families. \nIn 2018\, CDSC was rebranded as the Down Syndrome Association of Connecticut (DS ACT)—a name that reflects our mission to support individuals with Down syndrome across the state more effectively. This transformation has allowed us to expand our advocacy efforts\, enhance community programs\, and connect families to the resources and information they need to thrive. \nOver the past eight years\, DS ACT has strengthened its organization\, increased visibility and accessibility\, and introduced innovative programs that serve our vibrant community. \nWe are thrilled to enter this exciting new chapter and invite you to join us at our World Down Syndrome Day Gala—an evening to meet our board\, honor our volunteers\, connect with community partners\, and\, most importantly\, eat\, dance\, and celebrate together!
