DescResearch and clinical care: Down syndrome is when a person is born with three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two, called trisomy 21. Our scientists are working to understand how trisomy 21 leads to higher incidence of certain diseases (e.g. Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune disorders) and protects those same individuals with Down syndrome from other diseases (e.g. breast cancer and most forms of heart attack and stroke). Through our affiliate, The Sie Center for Down Syndrome at Children's Hospital Colorado, we are providing outstanding medical care to thousands of patients from 27 states and 7 countries. This outstanding medical care for patients with Down syndrome informs our research which in turn will improve the health and lifespan of our patients. This research also stands to help millions of typical individuals who suffer from diseases that those with Down syndrome are predisposed to, or protected from.Desc

Form And Line ReferencePart I, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationUniversity of Colorado Foundation- Quarterly reports are provided to the Global Down Syndrome Foundation from the University of Colorado Foundation to ensure that the funds are used appropriately. Prior to the release of funds from the University of Colorado Foundation to the Linda Crnic Institute, the Board of Directors for the Linda Crnic Institute must provide a 12 month operating budget outlining the specific use of the grant funds. The Linda Crnic Institute for Down Syndrome must provide periodic financial statements to the Global Down Syndrome Foundation that show use of the funds granted and any variances from the budget. For the educational and self advocate employment grants, members of the Global Down Syndrome Foundation conduct a grant review process to determine who is selected from a pool of applicants, and the amount of the grant is determined by reviewing financial reports including a budget for the educational and self advocate employment programs. At the end of the grant period, each grant recipient must send their final report with program documentation.ExplanationTxt
