In honor of Down Syndrome Awareness Month, read Human Coalition's latest blog about a precious little boy with Down Syndrome.





Hi John,

October is one of our favorite months of the year here at Human Coalition. It’s not because of the cooler weather and the pumpkin spice lattes (while those are certainly perks!). Rather, it’s because October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month.

During this month, it’s a privilege to celebrate those with Down syndrome and recognize the incredible joy they bring to the world. They’re valuable to us — and to the Lord.

To celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness Month, I’d love for you to meet a friend of ours with Down syndrome named Waylon. In Human Coalition’s latest blog, I am honored to share his story with you. www.humancoalition.org/down-syndrome-awarenes

Sadly, most children in the womb with Down syndrome don’t have the same story of life as Waylon. That’s because many parents are pressured to abort after a Down syndrome diagnosis.

But you and I know the truth: a Down syndrome diagnosis does not change Waylon’s value.

Like you and me, Waylon was made in God’s image and is loved by his Creator. To view Waylon as anything less than this is to miss seeing his God-given purpose and worth — something Waylon’s mom commonly encountered from others while pregnant.

You can read about the challenges Waylon’s family encountered while he was in the womb — and about the immense blessing he is to everyone around him here: www.humancoalition.org/down-syndrome-awareness
