All of Down Syndrome of Louisville’s programming is always open to Southern Indiana families, however, there are now comprehensive services and programs available in the Southern Indiana region as well. You can see all DSL’s program categories here. We also have many additional Family Support Services in addition to these programs. Our Lifelong Learning Model shows many of the programs and services that we offer throughout the lifespan in one quick glance.
