The Down Syndrome Association of Greater St. Louis is committed to advocacy for individuals with Down syndrome. Recognizing that there are two types of advocacy, personal advocacy and systems change, that are vital to fulfilling our mission of benefiting the lives of people with Down syndrome and their families, we work to promote both opportunities within our community.
One way we keep members aware of current issues is through our advocacy alert email list (AAL) Participants receive alerts regarding a specific action that could help or harm our members. From current news to political action, participation on the AAL will help members and individuals with Down syndrome be more aware of timely issues. To learn more about advocacy, please visit some of the web sites we have listed.
