We can provide accurate, up to date information, resources and support to new families of children with Down syndrome

Join me in supporting REAL change. Let’s capitalize on the good in the world and make a difference. Help us inform, connect, and support new and expectant parents around the world alongside Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network (DSDN).

Just a small donation will go a long way to helping me meet my goal for Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network. Not only will your donation go to support DSDN's mission, but I will also earn prizes that will help offset the cost of attending the annual Rockin' Retreat where I can connect with other parents on this same journey. I attended the Retreat in 2018 and it was life changing. I could not attend the retreat in 2019 because Zoe was born a week before. Though it was for a very good reason, I was SO bummed that I had to miss it. Then, obviously the retreat in 2020 didn't happen in person. DSDN did a great job of putting on a virtual "retreat," but it just wasn't the same. Therefore, I am even MORE excited to attend the retreat in 2021 (as long as COVID is under control and it is safe to go!).

Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network is a non-profit organization that launched in 2014. We are an online-based network that has made it our mission to support new and expectant parents of children with Down syndrome by providing information, connections, and support. Our vision is to ensure families have unbiased and factually accurate diagnosis experiences, every time, through which families quickly know they're not alone. We currently reach about 15% of those with a new diagnosis annually and support over 10,000 families that have a child with Down syndrome, with an emphasis on diagnosis and early childhood.
