Join us for a fun fall evening at Linvilla Orchards! DelcoDSIG members are invited to the Party Area of Linvilla, where the hayride will be departing from. Arrive at 6:15 pm sharp so we can load the hayride before it leaves at 6:30. After the hayride, we will return to the party area for a campfire, roasting marshmallows and delicious apple cider. There’s nothing better! We have a 60 person limit for the hayrides, so make sure you get your RSVP’s in ASAP!

Join us for an insightful virtual event tailored for families with loved ones who have Down syndrome or autism. Featuring expert presentations by Dr. Terry Katz and Dr. Karen Levine, participants will explore crucial topics such as sleep challenges faced by children with co-occurring conditions and the DIR-Floortime approach to fostering emotional and social development. Dr. Katz will share strategies to improve sleep for the whole family, while Dr. Levine will introduce effective, relationship-focused techniques to enhance communication and problem-solving skills. This is a must-attend event for parents and providers seeking practical solutions and support.
We are so excited to share this wonderful opportunity that is available for our local Down syndrome community!
Delco DSIG, and a few other local organizations, have partnered with The National Down Syndrome Congress to bring the Greater Philadelphia Region Educators Conference to our area.
Saturday, February 8, 2025
Riverfront Events/ Wilmington, Delaware
This unique conference offers practical, research-based strategies that general and special education teachers can immediately implement to support students with intellectual disabilities, including Down syndrome.
What’s even more exciting… DelcoDSIG is looking to SPONSOR FIVE Delco teachers. We will cover the entire registration fee for five teachers in our area.
What you can do…. Share this flyer and sponsorship application link with your child’s special education teacher. The more teachers we can get to this conference, the more support our members’ teachers have to work with our community now and in the future!
All applications must be received by Monday, December 2, 2024, to be eligible for the DSIG sponsorship.
