UAE youth breaking stigma surrounding Down Syndrome with new club

NULL

UAE youth are trying to break the stigma surrounding Down Syndrome. It's all thanks to a club that aims to highlight this condition and support families affected by this illness. The ‘Makani Bynahom’ club, which translates into "I am among them" was set up by Zayed University and now has 120 registered members. It has partnered with the Zayed Organization for Humanitarian Care and Special Needs to regularly visit children registered with the group.
