About Us

GiGi's Playhouse New Orleans Down Syndrome Achievement Center's mission is to change the way the world views Down syndrome (DS), and our vision is to see a world where individuals with DS are accepted and embraced in their families, schools, and communities. We accomplish this through consistent delivery of free educational, therapeutic-based programs for individuals with Down syndrome and their families at our Down Syndrome Achievement Center and by spreading the message of acceptance in the Greater New Orleans community.
