Down Syndrome Myth or Truth?

9 10 2011

Myth: Most people with Down syndrome are institutionalized.

Truth: Today people with Down syndrome live at home with their families and are active participants in the educational, vocational, social, and recreational activities of the community.

They are integrated into the regular education system and take part in sports, camping, music, art programs and all the other activities of their communities.

**Most importantly***

People with Down Syndrome, are just like you and me.
