Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer with the Down syndrome Medical Outreach  Ambassador Program!  Families receiving a prenatal or birth diagnosis of Down syndrome do so with varying degrees of information. Often, OB doctors and Labor and Delivery hospital units have little knowledge of or information about Down syndrome. Having good, current information about Down syndrome, and about the programs and     supports available for families, can make a big difference in the lives of babies with Down syndrome and their families. To reach the health care professionals who can provide this information, we need your help!  Please read thoroughly and complete application to apply to the volunteer with us.
