Description Program Service AccomIn 2010, the Lowcountry Down Syndrome Society held monthly meetings for members with topics relating to assistance for families of a child with Down syndrome. Care packages were continued to be distributed to new families of a child with Down syndrome identified by area hospitals. Group activities for the children and their families to assemble together were continued. In addition, several members attended related conferences to report back to the group regarding issues concerning the parents in the group. Camp Buddy, a summer camp program for the members to bridge the gap of therapies provided in the school system that are missing during the summer, continued again this year. It was held at 2 different locations each for 2 weeks and provided speech, physical, and occupational therapy under the guidance of a certified special education teacher and licensed therapists. A new project was begun entitled Night of Champions. This dinner was organized to honor and spotlight businesses in the community who employ people with special needs. The night also recognizes the special needs employee with video of them at their respective occupations. Lastly, the 5th annual Buddy Walk was help which provided the funds raised through public support.DescriptionProgramServiceAccom
