Adult Summit in Cincinnati logo

Thank you to those who joined us in Cincinnati, Ohio, for our Adult Summit!

For the first time since 2018, the NDSS Adult Summit returned to its original format. We welcomed hundreds of individuals from across the country to Cincinnati, OH, for three days of connection and educational sessions on a variety of topics that address adulthood and aging for the community. 

The NDSS Adult Summit covers aging and Down syndrome through a whole-person, comprehensive approach. Content will overlap ages and subject areas, providing attendees with information and practical resources. This conference is a great educational opportunity for individuals with Down syndrome and other disabilities, family members, and professionals.
