For almost 40 years, the Catalan Down's Syndrome Foundation has developed different actions, programmes and services with the aim of promoting personal autonomy, full social inclusion and there cognition of the rights of people with Down's Syndrome or other situations of intellectual disability.
Many of the so initiatives constitute a continuum of resources and strategies that allow supporting the vital itineraries of these people, in the different stages and areas of their lives.
Still today, these models of accompaniment have represented pioneering references at local and international level, which many other organisations have wanted to explore in order to implement alternative models to the services and benefits described in the regulations and portfolios of social services.
