The Department of Occupational Therapy wore LOTS OF SOCKS on Thursday, March 19 to raise awareness of World Down Syndrome Day.
LOTS OF SOCKS is an international campaign presented by Down Syndrome International to increase advocacy and education regarding the rights, inclusion and well being of people with Down syndrome.
To celebrate and show their support for this event, the faculty, staff and students donned over 50 pairs of crazy socks!
The official World Down Syndrome Day is March 21, 2015. The Department of Occupational Therapy encourages everyone to wear LOTS OF SOCKS or attend one of the special events being held in the Central Arkansas area this Saturday in support of Down syndrome.
