Today is "World Down Syndrome Day"!
Did you know?…
Approximately one in every 700 babies in the United States is born with Down syndrome – about 6,000 each year.
People with Down syndrome have an increased risk for certain medical conditions such as congenital heart defects, respiratory and hearing problems, Alzheimer’s disease, childhood leukemia and thyroid conditions.
Many of these conditions are now treatable, so most people with Down syndrome lead healthy lives.
Life expectancy for people with Down syndrome has increased dramatically in recent decades – from 25 in 1983 to 60 today.
People with Down syndrome attend school, work, participate in decisions that affect them, have meaningful relationships, vote and contribute to society in many wonderful ways.
Quality educational programs, a stimulating home environment, good health care and positive support from family, friends and the community enable people with Down syndrome to lead fulfilling and productive lives.
The City of Olive Branch is proud to participate in bringing awareness and celebrating with some of our friends with Down syndrome. You all ROCK!!!
