Expectant Parents
"Light at the End of the Tunnel" is designed specifically for parents receiving a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome. We hope you will take time to look at it and that it will be helpful to you in this difficult time. We would like to assure you, as we assure each of our new parents, that your child will be more like typical children than unlike them. Your child will go to school and will learn. He or she will look like you and will share your family traits. Perhaps most importantly, your baby will grow to become a complex and unique individual and will be a positive contributing member of your family and community.
Please feel free to peruse the rest of the website. There is much information available when you are ready. If you would like additional support, information or the opportunity to talk with another parent of a child with Down syndrome, we can help. Please let us know when your baby arrives, and we will provide you with additional resources. Please send us an email or call us at (714) 540-5794. If you call after business hours, please leave a message, and we will return your call as quickly as we can.
We look forward to hearing from you and your family.
