We celebrate the perseverance of children with Down syndrome and their families. Every child fought to get here, and every family fights to care for them. These kids have tremendous grit, as do the families that love them. Team Iron Will doesn’t know defeat; we just know we’re not there yet. To us, failure isn’t final; it’s just an opportunity to rise again. With determination and faith, we redefine success—for ourselves and our children.

RELENTLESS. FORWARD. PROGRESS.

"More Than Words: Understanding Motor Planning and Speech Development

In this parent-friendly webinar, we will explore the relationship between Down syndrome, motor speech development, and the challenges some children experience when learning to produce speech. Together, we'll break down the science behind speech production, discuss characteristics that may suggest motor planning difficulties, and explore how these challenges can influence a child's ability to communicate.

The goal is to help families better understand the complexities of speech development, recognize their child's individual strengths and challenges, and feel more informed and empowered in supporting their communication journey.
