Parent Chat – Down Syndrome Support Group
February 12, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Free
Please join us on select Saturdays at 10 am PST/1 pm EST (parents in all areas are welcome) for a Virtual Parent/Caregiver Support Group gathering. This parent collaboration is open to discussions of all ages and stages of development.
DS Action recognizes that our community is in need of ways to navigate the challenges we have faced over the past few years. Therefore, we decided to take action and find solutions to help families cope. Also, we know that there is always a need for parents/caregivers to collaborate with other families who have children with Down syndrome. We are glad to be providing a way for open communication to share thoughts, concerns, achievements, ideas and resources.
We are excited to be working with the SMart Center from Jankintown, Pennsylvania. They will be facilitating our group gatherings, sharing ways that we can better manage stress and anxiety, offer parenting strategies (with a focus on stress during the pandemic), and explain the significance of social support during a time when we are having to keep our distance.
Currently, DS Action is working on hosting additional family support groups/webinars. Donations are always welcome in order to help our efforts for our community. Click here to make a donation on our website.
We look forward to having you join us!
