Parent Support Group

Our Parent Support Group meetings are designed for parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends of individuals with Down syndrome where insightful information is presented by a guest speaker followed by an opportunity for everyone to share their experiences and concerns.

We have meetings at three locations: North San Antonio, South San Antonio, New Braunfels, and Boerne. For more information, please contact the DSASTX office at 210.349.4372 or downsynassc@dsastx.org.
