Everyone appreciates it, thanks! NDSS – National Down Syndrome Society NDSS website offers much of the same info as NADS, but is a little more politically orientated, considering themselves the leading advocate for DS Human Rights. The NDSS National Policy Center works with Congress and federal agencies to protect the rights of people with Down syndrome, and educates individuals to advocate on local, state and national levels. NDSS also is the originator and hub for The National Buddy Walk Program which includes over 250 walks yearly. NADS – National Association for Down Syndrome NADS is the oldest organization in the country serving individuals with Down syndrome and their families. It was founded in Chicago in 1961 by parents who chose to go against the currently common medical advice to place their child in an institution and raised their children with Down syndrome at home. Find resources, information about DS, events, and other helpful link here. One of their main goals is advocating and enabling those with DS to achieve their full potential and independence.

"To smatramo značajnim pomakom u smjeru integracije i budućeg zapošljavanja osoba s Down sindromom", poručuju iz Udruge Udruga za Down sindrom Zadarske županije dogovorila je poslovno-rehabilitacijsku suradnju s restoranom na zadarskom Poluotoku. U restoranu 'Pašta & Svašta' u Zadru, u četvrtak 9. lipnja, započet će s radom dvoje štićenika Udruge. "To smatramo značajnim pomakom u smjeru integracije i budućeg zapošljavanja osoba s Down sindromom. Nadamo se da ćemo poslati poruku i ostalima da sukladno svojim potrebama i mogućnostima nastoje uključivati osobe s teškoćama u sve segmente društva", poručuju iz Udruge. Udruga za Down sindrom Zadarske županije osnovana je 2007. godine. Suočeni s postojećim, vrlo lošim, stanjem u pristupu, integraciji i radu s osobama s Down sindromom, roditelji djece s odlučili su se organizirati kako bi se barem malim dijelom približili onomu što se može i što se čini na tom području u razvijenijim europskim zemljama. Želja im je osobito bila senzibilizirati društvenu zajednicu prema osobama s Down sindromom, unaprijediti zdravstvenu i psihosocijalnu skrb, obrazovanje, zapošljavanje i uključivanje osoba s Down sindromom u društvenu zajednicu.
