Educational Series

The Trisomy 21 Program at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, in cooperation with Hinkle, Fingles & Prior, attorneys at law, is hosting a two-part educational series on March 22 and April 26, 2014. The events will provide important information to families of children and adults with Down syndrome. The first session will focus on concerns that may arise during your child’s school-age years. The second session will educate you about resources and services available for you and your adult child after age 21.

We encourage you to attend both sessions. Space is limited, so please register early.

Please note: Childcare will not be provided.
