Welcome

Thank you for visiting our event page. We are so excited to be back in person this year for our 15th Annual DSAW- Chippewa Valley Down Syndrome Awareness Walk at Irvine Park on Sunday, September 26!! 

Although our office doors were closed for over a year, the dreams of people with Down syndrome have NOT been on hold. With your help, we were able to provide over 2,000 hours of virtual programming for our families and more than 10,970 hours of direct services in 2020. WOW! We rely on the incredible support of our community to make this happen. The majority of our programs and events are fully funded by this annual Awareness Walk, and we need YOU to help make them happen. Join us!
