| About us | CADSA currently does NOT have an office! CADSA offers social clubs such as Playtime Pals, Club 21, and Studio21 (fall 2026). CADSA holds an annual Advocacy Event on 3-21 for World Down Syndrome Day. CADSA also hosts several annual events to support people with Down syndrome and their families such as a Picnic, Harvest Dance and walk in October for Down Syndrome Awareness Month. The Buddy Walk, which was renamed in 2011 to Step Up for Down Syndrome, is the yearly community celebration where it attracts 500+ people to raise awareness and funds to enhance the lives of people with Down Syndrome and their families. |
