In our New Parent Visiting program we welcome new families who are expecting or have just welcomed a child with Down syndrome into their lives. If you are an expectant or new parent, or know of one, our trained visitors would love to meet with you and offer any advice and support we can.
The programs we offer to aid in the cognitive, gross motor, fine motor, social and emotional development of people with Down syndrome include:
Adult Social Nights
Family Social Events
Music Therapy
Zumba
Through fundraising and community support we are able to provide these programs at low or no cost to help our children grow to be valuable and contributing members in our community.
Our annual Walk for Awareness is a popular family event, while pledges brought in during this campaign have become an important part of making these programs a reality.
To make these programs available to all families with a family member with Down syndrome in the Fraser Valley, our society provides these resources at either low or no cost. Being a charitable organization run by parent volunteers, funds raised go directly into fulfilling these goals.
