DSL Testimonials

“DSL was there for my family, providing information on their program and literature on Down syndrome even before I came home from Hong Kong almost 2 years ago. Then, shortly after I was home, my mommy and daddy found out I had a life threatening medical condition and once again DSL was there offering support. Now, I love going to my Down syndrome playgroup where I can paint, sing, snack, and play ball with my friends.”

Benjamin, son of Dennis & Sarah Feaster

“This wonderful organization was there with a very reassuring upbeat phone call during my pregnancy, multiple hospital visits during Kate’s surgeries, home visits as she recovered, referrals to the best therapists the First Steps Program has to offer, and a wonderfully enriching weekly class for toddlers that Kate and I attend together. The staff make sure every dollar is used to improve the lives of people with Down Syndrome and consistently ensure what our kids are capable of. Each generation of children with Down Syndrome is achieving more and more and surprising many — but not the staff. They expect it. And rightly so.”

Traci and David Voss

“We did not know David had Down syndrome until he was born. The day after his birth, several quiet angels came to our hospital room and left a bounty of information that helped us get our bearings on what might lie ahead for our family and for our child with Down syndrome. The DSL Early Intervention Program gave me the hands-on help I needed to guide David through the infant, toddler, and preschool years.”

Sheila & Ben Loetz

“The Down Syndrome of Louisville people are awesome and have been very helpful in our adjusting to the news of Charlie having Down syndrome. They do things for all the age groups. Just recently the teens went to Kentucky Speedway to meet some of the Indy drivers. Charlie meets there the first Saturday of the month for an 18 month and under playgroup.”

Dean & Charles McCune

“I love to do things like dances, art, game nights, and tutoring with my best pal, Katie.”

Daniel Noltemeyer

“We get lots of support and help from the cool people at Down Syndrome of Louisville. They are going to help us and Hadley so that she has the most happy life possible. They are going to be there every step of the way to make sure Hadley is growing up to be a big, strong, smart, healthy girl.”

Kristen & Randall Cox

“This organization has been a part of my family’s life since we were blessed with Jordyn as a part of our family 3 years ago. They have been a wonderful source of support and friendship. It is such a joy to be a part of the Down Syndrome of Louisville family and the Buddy Walk is our way to give something back to them. ”
