Down Syndrome Association for Families to Host New Parent Welcome Brunch

On Saturday, August 11 from 9:30 to 11 a.m. at Firespring (1201 Infinity Ct.), the medical outreach team at Down Syndrome Association for Families (DSAF; dsafnebraska.org/event-2958266) will host a new parent welcome and informational brunch. If you are or you know a parent who recently received a diagnosis of Down syndrome, this is an opportunity for you to attend or pass along the details.

Receiving a diagnosis that your baby has Down syndrome can be overwhelming. DSAF wants to provide new and expecting parents with up-to-date information about Down syndrome and offer ways to help.

Guest speakers will be on-hand to share pointers on common questions and ways to help your child with Down syndrome. Specialists will include an occupational therapist, physical therapist, pediatrician, speech pathologist, and early childhood specialist. A light brunch will be served and there is no cost to attend.

Since 1995, DSAF has provided networking and a positive vision for the future to individuals with Down syndrome, their families, friends, educators, and professionals who share in their lives. For more information, contact Holly at (402) 421-1338 / medicaloutreach@dsafnebraska.org.
