Introducing Puberty Packs tailored specifically for tweens with Down syndrome – a thoughtful and inclusive solution designed to support unique needs during this transformative stage of life! At DSACO, we understand the importance of tailored support, which is why our Puberty Packs are carefully curated to address the specific needs of people with Down syndrome. With compassion and expertise, we’ve assembled a comprehensive selection of products and resources to navigate puberty with comfort and confidence.

Each Puberty Pack will include the booklet “Growing Up: A Guide to Puberty for Young Folks with Down Syndrome.” Created by the Maine Down Syndrome Network, this accessible educational resource empowers readers with the knowledge and guidance needed to navigate this stage of life with confidence and dignity.

With our Puberty Packs, tweens with Down syndrome can embark on this journey feeling supported, understood, and empowered every step of the way!

Please note: Each tween with Down syndrome in DSACO’s 23-county service area is eligible for one Puberty Pack.

DSACO values equal opportunity for program participation. Email kosborne@dsaco.net for fee waiver requests due to financial challenges.
