Every time a new baby with Down syndrome is born in El Paso, a welcome committee of DSCEP parents brings a gift basket to the hospital. As our mission states, the DSCEP is dedicated to providing resources and support to individuals with Down syndrome and their families.
The Down Syndrome Coalition for El Paso understands the unique challenges and concerns you face as you navigate parenthood with a child with Down syndrome. You aren’t alone. Our community is made up of families and children of varying ages, races, religious beliefs, and socioeconomic levels. Explore the links below to find local and national resources.
