Description

WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY! March 21 is a pretty special day and we are here to celebrate! It's World Down Syndrome Day and we have Eric Wilson, Matt "the Man" Moore, Norris, Gina, and Trent at the table to talk about it. The group talks about what 3.21 means and why today is the day chosen for WDSD. The guys talk about their goals in life and get into their superpowers. Gina shares how the world is different for people with Down syndrome in comparison to 30+ years ago when Eric was born. She also shares some great information about how to support people in the community with Down syndrome or who are just different from you. Norris gives Gina a hard time (in a comical way) the whole time. Matt, Eric, and Norris have been friends for 30 years and it shows in how they interact with one another. Listen along, you won't regret it.  For more information on World Down Syndrome Day, visit https://www.worlddownsyndromeday.org/ This podcast is made possible through partnerships with Spread the Positive, TN's Department of Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, and the Community Foundation of Middle TN.
