Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network

Inform - dsdn's board members and volunteers attend down syndrome related conferences to share information about dsdn's services to families, local down syndrome organizations, and medical professionals. Dsdn team members also attend national medical conferences to advocate for an unbiased, up-to-date and factual down syndrome diagnosis forfamilies, as well as to share about dsdn's services. Dsdn also creates and distributes materials on delivering a down syndrome diagnosis to local organizations and medical professionals.

Support - dsdn provides support to expectant and new families through online support groups, which are now part of a dsdn mobile app. Dsdn also provides pregnancy gifts, new baby gifts, and welcome gifts when a new family joins our community, as well as care packages when a child is in the hospital, and memorial gifts when a child passes away. Each year, dsdn also offers adoption grants for families in the process of adopting a child with down syndrome. Also part of our support services, dsdn offers scholarships to attend the dsdn rockin' mom and rockin' dad retreats. Dsdn also awarded grants to local down syndrome organizations.
