Teen & Adult Programs

It’s important individuals with Down syndrome remain active in the community through their school years and beyond.  DSAGSL offers several direct programs for teens and adults with Down syndrome, both online and in person.  We utilize Zoom, Facebook, and YouTube for our virtual programming, and our newly renovated multi-purpose room for in-person programs. It’s our mission to build inclusive, accessible programs that everyone can enjoy!  We hope you’ll join us!
