GiGi's Playhouses are Down syndrome achievement centers that provide resources, specialized teaching, and support to individuals with Down syndrome, their famil ies and the community. All of our programs are free to our families, are therapeutic in nature, and range in age from pre-natal diagnosis through adulthood.
