DSACT Proudly Presents:
"Down Syndrome in the 21st Century"
DSACT is pleased to release our new video "Down Syndrome in the 21st Century." This video profiles individuals with Down syndrome from infancy through adulthood doing remarkable things and contributing to their families and communities in ways that were not thought possible ten or twenty years ago.
The video is ideal for new or expectant parents, educators, physicians or other health care professionals, and the community, and provides a current, first-hand view of individuals with Down syndrome today.
The video features only people from Central Texas, and we had no idea when we started how many stars we have right here in the Austin area!
DSACT thanks all those who helped with the production of the video, as well as those featured in the video. It was a labor of love.

Remember the joy of opening the mailbox to actually find a CARD inside (rather than a bill or solicitation)? That joy is even greater for children! Can you imagine our children's surprise when they come home to discover their very own mail? Or when they open up the DSACT newsletter & see their photo announcing that they are another year older?
E-mail us your name, your child's name, birthdate, and your child's photo for both the newsletter and website.
E-mail us today!
