Welcome to a new season of the podcast and happy Down Syndrome Awareness Month! Or should we say DS Acceptance Month?! The advocacy language has definitely changed over the years. Lets talk about it. Here’s what you can expect this week:
How did DSAM become a thing? (Huge shout out to all the advocates who blazed a trail back in the 80s!)
What are we doing to celebrate this month? (Hint: not much!)
What is the difference between wanting to improve our kids lives and wanting to take their diagnoses away?
What are our advocacy goals for this month?
No matter how you’re celebrating (or not!) this month, we are cheering you on! Remember that your existence is your advocacy. And we are cheering for you!
