Today at BIS we are rocking our socks for World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD)! The "Rock Your Socks" campaign for WDSD is celebrated every year on March 21st. Rock Your Socks originated from the idea that chromosomes look like socks, and individuals with Down syndrome have three copies of chromosome 21, rather than two. The campaign encourages people to wear colorful or mismatched socks to raise awareness and support for people with Down Syndrome. #BelieveImagineSucceed #3RsBIS
