GDSF 2018 New Parent Outreach Survey

New Parent Outreach Survey

Dear Local Down Syndrome Organizations,

The Global Down Syndrome Foundation is wanting to do a listening campaign for all local Down syndrome organizations to help with their new parent outreach. We would be so grateful if you could take five minutes to complete this survey in order for us to get a better understanding on your overall new parent outreach efforts. We hope to share the compiled results with you at the upcoming 2019 DSAIA Conference in St. Louis and announce how we plan to use the results in order to help better assist our community. Thank you all in advance!

Best,

The Global Team
