Self-Advocate Program

Encouraging people with Down syndrome to speak up and take part.

People with Down syndrome are the best advocates for their own lives. We facilitate and encourage their active participation — alongside their families — in the education, vocational, residential and other services that shape their future.

Our aim is for every child to become as self-sufficient as possible, to be educated within the limits of their ability, and to be accepted as a valued member of the community.
