DSA strives to provide connections for healthy lifelong relationships with other families, the community and peers.
Education
DSA aims to be the leading information source for all Alabamians regarding Down syndrome, by educating new parents and increasing overall awareness of the public about the amazing abilities of individuals with Down syndrome.
