Description

The Massachusetts Down Syndrome Congress (MDSC), established in 1983, is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization made up of parents, professionals and anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of Down syndrome. Its roots trace back to a group of parents, in a living room in 1983, chatting about their children with Down syndrome and how they could connect and educate families, schools and communities. Twenty-two years later, with over 1,000 members, the MDSC has an energetic Board of Directors, and a vision to ensure that every person with Down syndrome has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
