On March 21st, we celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by advocating for the rights, inclusion, and well-being of people with Down syndrome around the world. This year, Down Syndrome International has chosen the theme With Us, Not For Us. A reminder to the entire community that people with Down syndrome need to be a part of the work being done to secure them the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. #NothingWithUsWithoutUs
