Speaking
DSF lectures on educational topics through National Down Syndrome Congress, and other Down syndrome associations and parent groups. DSF works locally and nationally with parents and educators to support effective instruction and improve educational outcomes.

Visions of Hope Gala
Since 2001, Down Syndrome Foundation has hosted the annual “Visions of Hope” gala. Approximately 300 guests attend this event each year. Reaching out to the community for support, this event provides DSF with an opportunity to spread Down syndrome awareness and to raise funds to support the development and implementation of its programs.

Symposium Sponsorship
DSF provided major sponsorship for the 2007 Down Syndrome Research Directions Symposium hosted by the Down Syndrome Educational International in England. This ground-breaking conference convened a multidisciplinary group of leading scientists to coordinate and prioritize future research and identify current best practice in development, education and healthcare.

New Parent Guide
Down Syndrome Foundation developed Orange County’s first parent education program designed to help parents of children with Down syndrome navigate the first five years of their child’s life. This guide was subsequently used as a model by Down syndrome groups in other states.
