Treasure Valley Down Syndrome Association

We help to create awareness around Down syndrome so that the whole community will accept and recognize the greatness we see in our loved ones.

Today the TVDSA continues to offer encouragement, support, and valuable information through meetings, community resources, books, newsletters, events, and more. We're a volunteer-managed organization funded by community support, grants, and our annual event, the Buddy Walk.
