DSCNWA

Down Syndrome Connection of Northwest Arkansas (DSCNWA) is a community organization serving people with Down syndrome and their families across Northwest Arkansas. Based in Rogers, it works to build connections and support inclusion through education, resources, advocacy, and community programs. Its offerings include age-specific groups, workshops, camps, and family events, alongside member supports such as care packages, Sunshine Totes, mentor families, and new-parent resources.

Families can also access a resource library, directories, information on common medical conditions and state benefits, and guidance on education, financial and long-term planning, and advocating for a child. DSCNWA provides educational seminars and conferences, medical outreach and training, and resources for new and expecting parents. The organization also creates opportunities for community involvement through volunteering, board service, fundraising, and events, including Step Up for Down Syndrome and 5x5 Art for a Cause.

People can become members, volunteer, attend programs, or donate, including through recurring contributions and the $21 Club. DSCNWA is located at the Center for Nonprofits in Rogers, Arkansas
