GiGi's Playhouse Detroit Down Syndrome Ahievement Center that provides FREE programs to individuals of all ages with Down syndrome and thier families.

GiGi's Playhouse Detroit Down Syndrome Achievement Center is changing the way the world views Down syndrome. We provide free life-changing therapeutic, educational and career training programs for individuals with Down syndrome of all ages. GiGi’s Playhouse programs support families in developing high expectations for their son or daughter with Down syndrome. Many families are blindsided by a diagnosis of Down syndrome in pregnancy or at birth. GiGi’s programs aim to help parents overcome the diagnosis and maintain high expectations for their child to achieve success in social, educational and employment opportunities in the future. We are a non-profit organization with an army of volunteers executing our programs.

🎉 **Welcome to the Board, Amber!** 💙💛

At GiGi’s Playhouse Detroit, we believe that true inclusion means having a voice, a seat at the table, and the opportunity to help shape the future.

We are thrilled to welcome **Amber as our newest Board Member!**

As both a GiGi’s Playhouse participant and a self-advocate, Amber brings a valuable perspective, firsthand experience, and a passion for making a difference.

Her leadership is a powerful reminder that inclusion isn't just something we talk about. It's something we put into action.

Please join us in celebrating Amber as she takes on this exciting new leadership role!

💙 **Celebrating Leadership. Building Belonging.**
