Join us for this special episode of Reduce the Stigma as we celebrate National Down Syndrome Awareness Month! In this heartfelt episode, Whitney interviews six incredible individuals who share their stories and experiences as part of the Down Syndrome community.
We kick things off with Greg Coni, President of the Down Syndrome Association of Pittsburgh (DSAP), who highlights the organization’s programs, including the highly anticipated fashion show. Meredith Peterson, former DSAP Executive Director, shares the story behind starting this unique event, which celebrates individuals with Down syndrome through fashion and self-expression. Plus, hear from four amazing models—Macee, Hannah, Justin, and Teresa—who shined on the runway, showcasing their talents and passions. These inspiring guests remind us of the importance of inclusion, advocacy, and presuming competence in everything we do.
Don't miss this uplifting celebration of abilities, joy, and community. Let's raise awareness, break down stigmas, and make it a better world—together!
