SUMMARY
People with DS are among the most discriminated groups in the US, held back by multiple laws that prevent them from living independent lives. As a result, NDSS functions as a human rights organization with a mission to create change through legislation and advocacy. This case not only challenged and changed the way lawmakers see people with DS, it helped pass a law that brings independence within reach.
