31 for 21

I like that so many of the websites I've browsed are international sites.  This is a human issue and it reminds me that what unites us is greater than what divides us.

DSi launches "International Petition for the Adoption of World Down Syndrome Day as a United Nations Observance Day from 21 March 2012"  http://www.ds-int.org/news/wdsd-petition  Deadline to sign is Oct. 16.

WDSD is observed by persons with Down syndrome and those who live and work with them in over 60 countries around the world in a variety of different ways, but with a common purpose, and the website http://www.worlddownsyndromeday.org/ provides an international forum for sharing experiences. Further information on WDSD is available on the DSi website here.
