Welcome to Down Syndrome: 21st Perspectives. As mothers of children who have Down Syndrome, Anne and Monique were inspired to create a space to talk authentically about their experiences. Their friend, Leigh, joins them as a cohost and executive producer. The podcast name says it all: A perspective is “a particular way of thinking about or viewing something, influenced by one's experiences and beliefs”. It is our hope that our listeners will be inspired to share their experiences; engage in our community; raise awareness, and create connections and opportunities for advocacy. Join us!
