LiveUp Programs is a fiercely committed group of collaborators who run on enthusiasm and determination, creating an environment with an unmistakable energy. The programs become an experience that’s greater than each person’s hopes, ideas and dreams.
LiveUp Programs is a close-knit, family of friends who love making memories and spreading joy together. In our signature weekend programs, participants and volunteers are paired in one-to-one friendships that change lives. Through the experience, we create strong advocates for the Down syndrome community. Our services continue in year-round activities designed to promote advocacy, leadership, health, wellness, and continued friendship!
LiveUp Programs was founded in 2011 by three volunteers to provide fresh programming for adults with Down syndrome. Our first program was held in Washington, D.C. and welcomed 16 participants. Since its inception, LiveUp has served close to 1,000 individuals with Down syndrome, engaged nearly 2,000 volunteers, provided scholarships for many participants to attend LiveUp, and hosted an endless number of dance parties.
