Co-hosted by the MDSC and the Boston Children’s Down Syndrome Program, join us as we learn some signs for common words and discuss how including sign language in daily routines can promote communication for babies and young children with Down syndrome. Signs will be translated into Spanish and Portuguese.
Join us for our first teen and young adult event of the year! We will meet at the Brookline Teen Center for socializing, pumpkin painting and Halloween themed bingo! For those who prefer to simply hangout with friends, there will be board games and music to enjoy! A gluten free snack and drink will be served.
Parents & Caregivers – Stay and Connect During AIM!
Parents and caregivers are invited to stay for the Parent & Caregiver Session which will take place in a conference room at the Brookline Teen Center. For the first session, we will be focusing on getting to know one another, learning about each other’s priorities, brainstorming for future speakers/presenters, and taking some time to network with one another! Snacks and drinks will be provided.
*AIM Meetups ARE drop off events. Parents and caregivers are not obligated to stay for the Parent & Caregiver Session.
Save the Date for MDSC’s Annual Educators Forum on Thursday, November 6th at The College of the Holy Cross, in Worcester MA.
We hope you will join us for a full-day of professional development with education specific workshops highlighting important information and resources to best support students with Down syndrome and other intellectual and developmental disabilities at school.
Stay tuned for Registration Opening!
