DSAMT's The EXTRA Mile® Auction

DSAMT is a community of parents, grandparents, siblings, physicians, educators, professionals, friends, and self-advocates from 40 counties in Middle Tennessee who celebrate and support individuals with Down Syndrome and their families. DSAMT is inclusive and does not draw stiff boundaries, so if you're in town or you have a need we can help, you're welcome to reach out or join us.

We envision a world in which individuals with Down syndrome are accepted, included, and valued for the extraordinary gifts they bring to our lives.
