UPS and Downs - Calgary Down Syndrome Association

Calgary’s Down Syndrome Association, known as Ups and Downs, has been a prominent figure in the community since being registered as a charity in 1987. For over 30 years, this organization has provided unwavering support to individuals with Down syndrome, their families, friends, and the wider Calgary area. Offering a diverse range of more than 70 programs annually, Ups and Downs creates opportunities for connections, discussions, and learning through events, workshops, and conferences catering to children, youth, and adults.

One of the standout events hosted by Ups and Downs is the annual Street Meet walkathon fundraiser in June, which serves as a celebration honoring individuals with Down syndrome, their families, and friends. In addition to facilitating social interactions, Ups and Downs also acts as a hub for information exchange among members through a dedicated Facebook group. While refraining from endorsing specific service providers, the organization fosters a supportive environment where individuals can network, share experiences, and seek guidance from peers.
