Today we want you to know about Juan, he is 12 years old, he was born with Down Syndrome and he loves listening to music, dancing and painting. He lives with his parents and siblings in the municipality of Medellín in Colombia, as a family they accompany Juan in his comprehensive rehabilitation therapies that include a series of activities that they share as a family, including: support for school inclusion, pedagogy, speech therapy and hydrotherapy.
Thanks to the support of generous people like you and the support of his family, Juan has made great progress in his process, he has improved his levels of grouping and classifying elements, he has greater control of his posture and movements when walking, he is located in time and space, recognizes and imitates sounds and performs rhythmic and choreographic work.
All these advances have been possible in part due to your contribution, which is why today we are grateful for the opportunity that you offer a child or adolescent to improve their quality of life and access better health conditions.
