DSAW Free Statewide Programs

Grandparents Group

First Tuesday of the month from 4pm-5pm

DSAW invites all grandparents with a loved one with Down syndrome to share and connect with fellow grandparents.  We’ll be meeting every first Tuesday of the month to share the joys and tell stories of our grandchildren with Down syndrome.

Grandparents Group meets in-person at the DSAW Office. Not local? Meet with us over Zoom!

Zoom Zumba

Tuesdays from 5pm-6pm

This fitness sensation combines Latin and international rhythms to produce a workout that is both fun and effective! Our friend and certified Zumba instructor at Dance Life Studio, Nita, will lead us through a 60-minute session with easy to follow steps and upbeat music that might even make you forget that you are exercising! More a party than a chore, getting in shape with Zumba is appropriate for individuals at all levels of fitness. Please ensure that you have plenty of space to move around, that you are wearing the appropriate footwear, comfortable clothing and that you have water. Please ensure that you keep hydrated.

New Parents Group

First Tuesday of the month from 6pm-7pm

Get together with other parents who have babies under 3 to share experiences, resources, and community!

Stream Team (14+)

Wednesdays from 2-2:45pm

Join us for a virtual “hangout” to stay connected with your friends! Tweens 14+ and self advocates are invited to hang out with us virtually on Wednesdays. We play games, Kahoots, and build friendships!

Prenatal Diagnosis Group

Second and Fourth Wednesday of the month from 8pm-9pm

A completely non-judgmental support group for women who have recently received a prenatal Down Syndrome diagnosis and wish to seek personal support. The group is for women in various stages of their pregnancy and decision-making journey. We welcome everyone, regardless of any decisions made, to attend our judgment-free group.  Join us as we gather to provide support and share our experiences.
