What people are saying
“Adam has participated in Tweens & Teens UP! since 2017. Adam lives with his grandparents and regularly participates in the West Valley Tweens & Teens program offered by Down Syndrome Network. His grandparents benefit from the respite they receive during the duration of program, knowing that Adam is supported and cared for in a safe environment…Adam uses an assistive communication device, and the program has helped him to learn how to effectively communicate with others.”
“The Down Syndrome Network of Arizona was the first program I found for her my daughter Jayclyn, where I felt she would be provided with all the resources she and the I needed. Jayclyn has learned so much throughout these nine years, which I can credit to Down Syndrome Network Arizona…As our journey continues, I’m truly thankful to have the Tweens & Teens UP program for my daughter and DSNetwork along for the ride.”
