Abbie & Rick: Parenting a Child with Down Syndrome

Abbie and Rick are parents to three boys, and Noah, their oldest son, has down syndrome. They talk about what it was like when they first found out about his diagnosis, and how talking to another family a few years ahead of them gave them hope for Noah's future. That journey inspired them to help connect more parents raising children with down syndrome through an organization called HopeStory.
