DSNetwork invites all new parents and soon-to-be-parents in 2023 & 2024 to join us for a social gathering on August 8th, 12:30pm at our Enrichment Center in Tempe.
This gathering is an opportunity for new parents or soon-to-be-parents to connect with fellow parents who have walked a similar path and can offer insights, advice, and, most importantly, camaraderie. We believe in the strength that comes from shared experiences and the joy that arises when we come together to celebrate the uniqueness and beauty of our children.
The event will be an informal and welcoming environment, providing a space for open conversations, laughter, and the building of lasting connections. Feel free to bring any questions you may have, as well as your own experiences to share. We understand that every family’s journey is different, and we embrace and celebrate those differences.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We look forward to meeting you and extending a warm welcome to both you and your precious little one.
Please RSVP here:

When a parent learns their child has Down syndrome, the news can be overwhelming. Questions of how, why, what, and a roller coaster of emotions take over. From first getting the diagnosis through school-aged years and beyond, individuals with Down syndrome and their families face a wide-range of challenges. They find themselves on a wonderful, but complicated journey to learn how to best support and nurture their loved ones. Individuals with Down syndrome are bright and creative and with every challenge they are given, they provide laughter and joy to those around them. Down Syndrome Network assists families every step of the way.
