Down Syndrome Awareness “Peer Presentation” Training

DSACK seeks to educate the community to breakdown stereotypes, provide positive images of individuals with Down syndrome and to support families to achieve success.  One new way that DSACK is working hard to achieve this is through our newly offered “boxed up” Down Syndrome Awareness Peer Presentation kits, and training sessions for anyone interested in becoming a trained volunteer Peer Presenter for DSACK. Volunteers who go through the training session will be empowered to educate their loved one’s school community and will also have the tools to do so through our Peer Presentation Kit. Those who attend the training will be able to check out the kits for use at schools of their choice and will also receive other support from DSACK such as personalized bookmarks for your child’s class, etc.   In order to assure the quality and consistency of these presentations that reflect on DSACK, only those persons who have attended a training session will be able to check out the presentation kit.

We plan to hold training sessions occasionally throughout the year as needed. If you are interested in a Peer Presentation at your school or in Peer Presentation Training, contact DSACK at (859) 494-7809 or info@dsack.org
