Ruby's Rainbow + 3/21 Pledge

I’ve mentioned before - raising a child with Down syndrome has come leaps and bounds than a decade or more ago. So many more resources and programs to help our kids develop and achieve milestones and goals like their typical peers. 

Ruby’s Rainbow is a nonprofit that provides post-secondary scholarships to 35 individuals a year who have Down syndrome. Because some individuals with Ds do want further education! They also want a good quality of life, independence, and meaningful relationships.

I really like watching that video because it gives me a glimpse into what could be Hannah’s future. Seeing adults with Down syndrome wanting the same things we all did at that age. Living life after high school just like we did... maybe without the occasional party [!].

I’m extremely happy that my alum, University of Cincinnati, has its own TAP program [Transition & Access Program] for these adults to have an authentic college experience:

Here’s to bright futures!
