Down Syndrome Indiana is a one-stop-shop for all things Down syndrome. Down Syndrome Indiana opened its doors over 30 years ago with one simple mission, to enhance the lives of individuals with Down Syndrome. Down Syndrome Indiana was parent-founded, with the simple vision of making Indiana a more inclusive place for individuals with Down syndrome to work, live, and thrive. We carry out this mission and vision through new and current parent resources and education, community connection, programming, advocacy and awareness, and so much more!
Join Us for the Annual D.A.D.S. Fall Hayride!
D.A.D.S. (Dads Appreciating Down Syndrome) is excited to host its annual Fall Hayride, and all Down Syndrome Indiana families are invited to attend!
Join us for a wonderful afternoon of fall fun, delicious food, and fellowship at Spencer’s U-Pick Farm in Noblesville! Families can enjoy hayrides, games and activities for kids, a warm fire, and of course, S’MORES! This annual tradition is a great opportunity to connect with other families in the Down Syndrome Indiana community while making lasting memories together.
Whether you have attended in the past or this will be your first year, we hope you will join us! All you need to bring is your appetite, a cozy sweater, lawn chairs or a picnic blanket, and maybe a camera to capture some special family moments.
