59. Finding Community at GiGi's Playhouse w/Nancy Gianni

When Nancy Gianni received her daughter GiGi’s Down Syndrome diagnosis, it was “all condolences and no congratulations.” But it didn’t take long for Nancy to decide that she wanted to live in a world that celebrates Down Syndrome, and so she quickly took action. Just one year after GiGi’s birth, the first GiGi’s Playhouse opened! Today, there are 48 GiGi’s locations across the country and even one in Mexico! GiGi’s Playhouse is the ONLY international network of Down Syndrome Achievement Centers that offers FREE life-changing therapeutic and educational programs for all ages. (Do you think this is as cool as we do?!) 

Join us for a chat with Nancy Gianni, author, public speaker, Chief Belief Officer and founder of GiGi’s Playhouse! She’s bringing energy, excitement, and empowerment to the Down Syndrome Community across the globe and we could not be more thankful. Get involved with GiGi’s Playhouse by visiting gigisplayhouse.org.
