October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. Did you know that Down syndrome is the most commonly occurring chromosomal condition - one in every 691 babies in the United States is born with Down syndrome. Down syndrome occurs when an individual has a full or partial extra copy of the 21st chromosome. This additional genetic material alters the course of development and causes the characteristics associated with Down syndrome. Down syndrome occurs in all races and economic levels. Today there are more than 400,000 people in the US with Down syndrome.

National Down Syndrome Society envisions a world in which all people with Down syndrome have the opportunity to enhance their quality of life, realize their life aspirations and become valued members of welcoming communities. Since 1979, NDSS has helped the Down syndrome community make great strides in enhancing the lives of people with Down syndrome. As the national advocate for people with Down syndrome, their goal is to ensure that individuals with Down syndrome are fully participating members of our communities.
