World Down Syndrome Day
On Monday, March 21st we will celebrate World Down Syndrome Day at all of our clinic locations! The date for WDSD is always the 21st day of the 3rd month, as it signifies the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down Syndrome. To show our support that day, our staff will be wearing unique, mismatched, and colorful socks! We invite all of our kiddos to wear their silly socks as well!
The North Carolina Down Syndrome Alliance asks everyone to post a picture of you rocking your socks and use the following hashtags to show support and spread awareness:
- #WDSD2023
- #RockYourSocks
- #NCDSA
