A Special Message From "Ellis’ Entourage"

Meet Ellis! Ellis joined our family in September of 2021 and was prenatally diagnosed with T21 at 15 weeks. We were connected to Down Syndrome Innovations after receiving her diagnosis and was such a blessing to have provided us with support, resources, and best of all, some of the best families in the Kansas City area. This organization will always hold a special place in our hearts; we are excited to participate and hope you can join us in the Step Up walk this year! With Love, Sam & Josh
