About This Cause
Supporting & enriching lives of children, youth, adults and families living with Down syndrome. Established in 1983 the London Down Syndrome Association evolved from a group of parents who were part of a Parent Support Group through the Child and Parent Research Institute (CPRI) in London, Ontario. The London Down Syndrome Association known as LDSA, is a registered charity located in London Ontario. Providing support within the counties of Elgin, Huron, Middlesex, Oxford and Perth. This dedicated group of parents desired to create an organization that would provide emotional and social opportunities for families while raising funds to provide much needed programs and support services; from this group, began the LDSA. Presently the LDSA has no paid staff and is led by a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of parents and community members. This group are dedicated to the work of the LDSA and more importantly the children and families it serves. As part of the organization’s Vision and Mission, the LDSA advocates and raises awareness and recognizes the contributions made by people with Down syndrome. Today, the LDSA continues its long history of advocating for dignity, equal rights and a better life for all persons with Down syndrome.
