Down Syndrome

Children and adolescents with Down syndrome have an increased risk of mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, and behavioural issues. The cognitive challenges associated with Down syndrome can impact emotional regulation and social interactions. Comprehensive care addressing both developmental and mental health needs is important for promoting overall wellbeing in youth with Down syndrome.
