✨Today we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his belief in dignity, justice, and belonging for all.

His teachings remind us that every person has value and deserves to be seen, heard, and included. Those values are at the heart of the Down syndrome community. When we advocate for acceptance and opportunity, we are living out Dr. King’s vision through everyday acts of inclusion.

We honor his legacy by building communities where everyone belongs.🩵
