Down Syndrome WA

Down Syndrome WA - supporting a life of possibilities

Down Syndrome WA is Western Australia’s peak organisation representing people with Down syndrome, their families and friends. They work to represent their needs to the community, promote positive attitudes and create opportunities for full inclusion and participation.

People with Down syndrome have individual personalities, strengths, interests and skills. Support from those who share their lives and positive attitudes of the broader community help shape the kinds of lives they can enjoy. Down Syndrome WA is committed to enriching the lives of people with Down syndrome and supporting a life of possibilities.

The vision is that people with Down syndrome live a life of their choice and make their contribution to the community. Underlying this are the fundamental beliefs that each person with Down syndrome has the same rights as anyone else and has a contribution to make.
