Champaign County Down Syndrome Network

Serving Our Member Families

Make a difference and help us fulfill our mission to empower individuals, educate families, enhance communities and together, celebrate the extraordinary lives of people with Down syndrome. The Champaign County Down Syndrome Network is an IRS registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.

We partner with families and others to create an environment in which individuals with Down syndrome are welcomed with fairness, enthusiasm, and encouragement in their community. We host an annual Buddy Walk. It is a special way of celebrating our individuals with Down syndrome and how East Central Illinois accepts and includes them. Funds raised from the Buddy Walk help the DSN host educational and social events throughout the year.
