About Us
What we do in the community
TVDSA is passionate about promoting an understanding and supportive environment. We want everyone to know that people with Down syndrome have wonderful talents and attributes just like everyone else. In addition, we want all parents to have what they need to help their child with Down syndrome reach their full potential. We provide support and education through programs, events, reading materials, and more.
In an effort to stay informed about all things Down syndrome, we also have relationships with local and national organizations like the Special Olympics, Idaho Infant-Toddler Program, National Down Syndrome Congress (NDSC), and National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS).
01.
Programs: Our member-only flagship programs are volunteer-managed clubs that provide an opportunity for recreation and networking. Our age-specific programs let children and adults (who happen to have Down syndrome!) meet their peers and connect through social and learning activities. Our family-support programs let mothers & fathers come together to share insight and experiences.
