Our Partners
To carry on our mission, we started the Amina Grace Speech and Language Program at GiGi’s Playhouse and the Amina Grace Gardens Program at Misericordia. We also support the Congratulations Basket Program through the National Association for Down Syndrome (NADS) and Gerry’s Cafe. All of these programs are providing much needed training, therapy and opportunties that will help people with Down syndrome and other differing abilities become valued members of their communities.
