The theme of International Day Of Persons With Disabilities 2023 is "United In Action". Up to 80% of children with intellectual disabilities don't go to school. This #IDPD, we at @SpecialOlympics demand action. Changing the world is a contact sport - and we're here to win.

Happy #WorldDownSyndromeDay!
On this day and every day, we celebrate people with Down syndrome. Please stand with us in being loud and proud, and recognizing the unique talents, abilities and joy that our athletes with Down syndrome bring to Special Olympics and to the world!

🤝 @specialolympics works 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 our athletes, not 𝗳𝗼𝗿 them. This #WorldDownSyndromeDay, we call on all organizations to place people with Down Syndrome at their core, to listen & learn from them, and to recognize their leadership abilities and skills. #InclusionRevolution

It is never okay to use the R-word, use disability as an insult, or make jokes at the expense of others. When you hear someone use the R-word, take the opportunity to educate them. Provide them with resources and encourage them to take the #pledgetoinclude.

"Special Olympics is a movement driven by a restless dissatisfaction with the status quo. Today, we are in solidarity with our athletes, leaders & brothers & sisters of color who have suffered unjustly for centuries in the US."
