Resources for Educators
We deeply appreciate the important role you play in enhancing the educational experiences of students with Down syndrome. Education is a crucial component of any child’s life. One of the major areas of focus for the Down Syndrome Association of Minnesota is supporting educational professionals who work with our children.
Our Association is a resource for you ~ our membership includes families as well as medical, educational and developmental professionals with deep insights into and broad experiences with the developmental challenges of Down syndrome.
We maintain a Resource Lending Library offering video and audio tapes from national conferences, books and other materials addressing a wide range of topics related to Down syndrome. If you would like to know more, please give us a call at 800-511-3696 or email dsamn@dsamn.org. We are located in St. Paul, MN and our staff welcomes your inquiries.
We applaud your efforts on behalf of our children.
