There is so much uncertainty in our communities today. These unusual times create a lot of stress and uncertainty for so many individuals. It is during these times that leaders need to come together and strategize about the best path forward. Today we will be doing just that in Austin. The focus will be to do everything possible to provide the best supports and services for everyone in our 7 county area.

October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month!

Let’s celebrate the extra chromosome that brings extra joy, laughter, and love into the world! 💛💙

People with Down syndrome are just like everyone else, they have unique talents, dreams, and personalities that make our communities brighter.

So this month (and every month), let’s choose inclusion, kindness, and understanding.
Because different doesn’t mean less, it means beautifully unique.

Whether it's a quiet walk, a good night’s sleep, setting boundaries, or showing yourself a little kindness, it all counts.

Here are just a few examples of different types of self-care:
