DSAW-Chippewa Valley
WHO WE ARE
DSAW-Chippewa Valley is a chapter of the Down Syndrome Association of Wisconsin. We serve Eau Claire and surrounding counties, including Chippewa, Pepin, and Dunn.
Our goal is to support individuals with Down syndrome or related disabilities and their families in our community. We do this by connecting families with local resources (and each other), bringing educational speakers to our area, and by hosting family events, including an annual Down Syndrome Awareness Walk! For information about our programs or how to get involved, please email us!
DSAW-Chippewa Valley is a chapter of DSAW, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization. All donations are tax-deductible and support programs and services in our chapter. Click here to make a donation.
Registration is now open for our 2025 Down Syndrome Awareness Walk
We are so excited to be in person again this year for our 19th Annual DSAW-Chippewa Valley Down Syndrome Awareness Walk at Irvine Park on Sunday, September 28!!
With the support of our generous friends like you, we were able to host events for caregivers and individuals with Down syndrome, send new and expectant parent packs at no cost to parents who received a Down syndrome diagnosis, and so much MORE in 2024! WOW - thank you! We rely on the incredible support of our community to make DSAW-Chippewa Valley's services happen. The majority of our programs and events are fully funded by this annual Awareness Walk, and we need YOU to help make them happen. Join us!
