The National Down Syndrome Society and LuMind IDSC are joining forces to advance the rights, health, and well-being of individuals with Down syndrome. By uniting the deep advocacy roots, community leadership, resources, and policy influence of NDSS with LuMind IDSC’s expertise in research and health equity, this combined organization will harness complementary strengths to create even greater impact. Together, we are creating a world where individuals with Down syndrome thrive. This unified organization will drive progress across multiple fronts, from accelerating scientific research, improving access to quality healthcare, shaping inclusive public policy, and shifting public perception through increased awareness and education. NDSS will be adding a research pillar to its core programmatic work. Our newly expanded team provides the greatest chance of successfully accelerating treatments for our community’s greatest current health challenge: Alzheimer’s disease. We are putting our families first in this journey of transformative change. To learn more about NDSS, visit http://www.ndss.org
