Saving Down syndrome

Saving Downs is a pioneering international organization dedicated to advocacy for individuals with Down syndrome. Committed to fostering a supportive and informed environment, the organization aims to provide life-affirming, unbiased care to expectant parents facing a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome. Through education and advocacy, Saving Downs raises awareness about the discriminatory practices associated with prenatal screening and promotes the right to life and dignity for all unborn children.

The organization emphasizes that prenatal screening should be an informed choice rather than a routine procedure, advocating that diagnostic tests must respect the integrity of the unborn child and not introduce unnecessary risks. Saving Downs also connects families exploring adoption options for children with Down syndrome and supports parents throughout their pregnancy journey, firmly believing that a diagnosis should not lead to termination. With a focus on respect, understanding, and equal treatment, Saving Downs works tirelessly to change perceptions and foster a more inclusive society for individuals with Down syndrome.
