The 43rd Annual National Down Syndrome Congress Convention will take place June 25­28, 2015 in Phoenix, Arizona. The NDSC Convention is the largest gathering in the world of its kind, with more than 3,300 people, personally or professionally connected to Down syndrome, participating each year.

This "Giant Family Reunion" weekend includes in­-depth pre­-conferences, sharing sessions, plenary sessions, more than 70 workshops, a film festival, as well as specialized tracks for adult siblings and for families who experience a co-­occurring diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder.

The NDSC is the leading national resource of support and information for anyone touched by or seeking to learn about Down syndrome, from the moment of a pre­-natal diagnosis through adulthood. NDSC is a member-­sustained non­-profit organization, composed of parents, self advocates, siblings, grandparents, educators, physicians, therapists, other professionals, friends and supporters. Our purpose is to promote the interests of people with Down syndrome and their families through advocacy, public awareness, and information.

The annual convention is the longest running and best known program of the NDSC.
