More Facts about Down Syndrome…

★ Down syndrome occurs when an individual has a full or partial extra copy of chromosome 21. This additional genetic material alters the course of development and causes the characteristics associated with Down syndrome.

Down syndrome is the most commonly

occurring chromosomal

condition. Approximately one in every 700 babies in the United States is born with Down syndrome – about 6,000 each year.

More Facts about Down Syndrome…
