WHO WE ARE
The Northern Colorado Down Syndrome Association (NCDSA) started off with just a couple of parents who were determined to bring together families in Northern Colorado who have a loved one with Down syndrome. Since then, we have grown to an organization that serves hundreds of people throughout the Northern Colorado area.
WHAT WE DO
NCDSA exists to provide support and connection for individuals with Down syndrome and their families through advocacy, awareness, and relationships.
Advocacy
We empower individuals with Down syndrome—and their families—to use their voice in creating the life they desire.
