The Down Syndrome Coalition for El Paso is the result of our desire as parents to create a path to a brighter future for our children. Founded in January 2015, with the tremendous support of the El Paso Community Foundation, the Down Syndrome Coalition for El Paso filled a need for community support, resources, and advocacy for families of individuals with Down syndrome and other intellectual challenges.
In addition to creating opportunities to celebrate our children, the DSCEP opened a preschool program for children with Down syndrome, implemented an annual educational symposium for parents, and launched a book club for teens and adults with Down syndrome.
The goal of the DSCEP is to partner with more organizations, more parents, and the greater El Paso community, to create a better world for all individuals with special needs. Thank you for your support!
The Down Syndrome Coalition for El Paso is building a better tomorrow through education, advocacy, and support.
Down syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality in which there is an extra full or partial copy of chromosome 21. Down syndrome occurs in people of all races and economic levels.
Membership with the Down Syndrome Coalition for El Paso is free and will provide you with access to information on all of the programs and events with the DSCEP.
