This month we’re celebrating Down Syndrome Awareness Month with episodes based on popular Google search topics! On today’s episode, we’re answering the question: Can a person with Down syndrome find community & belonging? Today’s conversation is sparked by a recent blog post of Heather’s on why her daughter Macy didn’t attend homecoming this year, we’re chatting about what it truly means for someone with Down syndrome to feel a sense of belonging in school and their wider community. What can we all do to ensure inclusion happens? How can we help build bridges where isolation exists? From clubs and activities to real friendships, we’re chatting about inclusion, community, and what happens when we work together to make existing opportunities even better. Do we have all the answers…never! But we have hope having these tough conversations helps build and maintain those bridges toward community and belonging.
