Connect and Celebrate

The Down Syndrome Awareness Group (DSAG) was founded in 1983 by an amazingly determined group of parents who wanted not only to improve the lives of their children but to also create a life of inclusion for them. In 2021, Baton Rouge families banded together to bring a new meaning to DSAG: Connect and Celebrate!

Connect 

At DSAG, one of our main goals is to CONNECT with other families of those with Down syndrome as well as the community as a whole to foster connections and form relationships. We do this by providing a myriad of exciting and interactive events that are open for everyone in the DSAG Community to attend, learn and CONNECT.

Celebrate

There’s nothing we love more than to CELEBRATE the love, life and beauty of the Down syndrome community. We  provide amazing opportunities for support and care. Throughout the year, we also offer valuable programs that help us CELEBRATE the community we’ve built and love we’ve shared. Because every life is worth celebrating.
