National Down Syndrome Society

- Law Syndrome -

People with Down Syndrome suffer a plight that many of us aren’t aware of, and it has nothing to do with their physical or mental condition. In fact, it’s a series of antiquated laws that impedes their pursuit of a career and living independently without the risk of losing their vital healthcare benefits. Truthfully, they don’t suffer from Down Syndrome, they suffer from Law Syndrome.

C21 Restaurant

We launched the campaign by inviting lawmakers and politicians in Washington, D.C. to a dining experience of a different kind – the C21 Restaurant, named after the additional chromosome carried by people with Down Syndrome.

A dedicated website educated people on the issue, allowed them to take action with their government representative, and gave updates on the campaign’s progress.
