World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) takes place worldwide on March 21 each year. It’s all about promoting understanding, acceptance and inclusion for people with Down syndrome. The date, 3/21, symbolizes the three copies of the 21st chromosome that cause Down syndrome.
WDSD brings communities together to celebrate individuals with Down syndrome.
Events take place to highlight the importance of inclusion, advocacy and supporting people with Down syndrome and their families. Schools, workplaces and community centers often organize activities to educate and break down barriers.
