Every year, NDSS reminds the world in a big way about the gifts that people with Down syndrome bring to their communities through a special video presentation on a jumbo screen in the heart of the Times Square.

The 40-minute showing takes place each year on the morning of the New York City Buddy Walk^® and is one of the highlights of National Down Syndrome Awareness Month.

NDSS receives thousands of photo submissions for the Times Square Video Contest. Because the Buddy Walk^® promotes acceptance and inclusion of individuals with Down syndrome, the winning photographs feature children, teens and adults with Down syndrome working, playing and learning with friends and family.
