💙💛 October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month! 💛💙
Every person deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, build meaningful relationships, and participate fully in the community they call home.
Since 1972, Building Bridges Developmental and Community Services has been committed to making those opportunities more accessible for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including Down syndrome.
What began with local families advocating for greater opportunities has grown into more than 50 years of service, connection, and community partnerships across Central Arkansas.
From early childhood developmental services and therapies to adult programs, employment training, and community-based support, our mission remains rooted in a simple belief: Every individual has unique strengths, meaningful contributions to make, and the right to pursue a fulfilling life.
This Down Syndrome Awareness Month, we celebrate individuals with Down syndrome, recognize their contributions, and reaffirm our commitment to building communities where inclusion, respect, and opportunity are part of everyday life.
Looking for support, services, or opportunities for yourself or someone you love? Building Bridges is here to help you explore the resources and programs available for children, adults, and families.
