Information for New Parents

One of our main outreach programs is designed for new parents of a child with Down syndrome.  This can be an especially anxious time for most new parents, so we strive to provide you with as much information as possible about Down syndrome and connect you with resources to help you.

This page is currently under construction, so check back very soon for more new parent information.  In the meantime, please check the following helpful links:

The Seattle Children's Hospital Medical Center's Center for Children with Special Needs website has a huge list of contacts, resources and news for parents of children with special needs.

Seattle's Children's Hospital Medical Center also has a resource guide for new parents called Starting Point, which is provided in both English and Spanish, as well as an exhaustive list of links to resources that might be of use to new parents.

The National Down Syndrome Congress has a set of links for new parents of children with Down syndrome with facts on Down syndrome, early intervention and resources.
