Arkansas Down Syndrome Association (ADSA) is proud to host Buddy Walk® - a day of celebration to promote awareness, acceptance and inclusion of individuals with Down syndrome!
ADSA was incorporated in 2004 and is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. We are dedicated to advocating for healthy, inclusive, and productive lives for people with Down syndrome (DS). We serve our DS community by providing free events and services for families across Arkansas—as well as sponsor awareness and educational materials for schools and communities. We're an all-volunteer organization guided by a diverse board of directors made up of medical professionals, members of our local business community and parents of children with DS. Our website, www.ardownsyndrome.org, is the largest and most comprehensive of Arkansas-based websites for families with DS—and includes valuable advocacy, community, educational, legal, medical, and tax resources.
Your support enables ADSA to continue providing local and statewide programs and services, along with advocacy and public awareness--benefiting all individuals with Down syndrome and their families.
Post your walk pictures to social media to help raise awareness! Don't forget to tag us @ardownsyndromeassociation or #dsawarenessAR! You can also email us your pictures at contact@ardownsyndrome.org!
Form your team, get your family and friends to come together and help our loved ones with Down syndrome feel accepted, supported, and celebrated!
