Kandi Pickard, the President and CEO of the National Down Syndrome Society, is this episode’s guest. As the leading human rights organization for individuals with Down Syndrome, NDSS’s goal is a world in which all those who live with this syndrome have the opportunity to enhance their quality of life, realize their life aspirations and become valued members of welcoming communities. NDSS accomplishes this through national advocacy, educational programs, an employment program that seeks to increase access to the workplace for those with Down Syndrome, and the National Buddy Walk program which raises awareness for the Down Syndrome Community. Through these programs, NDSS has made a huge impact on so many people’s lives. (0:24).
