END THE STEREOTYPES: Today, Chenango Forks CSD celebrates World Down Syndrome Day. According to the organization, Down Syndrome Intenational, this year's theme is #EndTheSteryotypes.
World Down Syndrome International on Stereotypes:
"A stereotype is a set idea that people have about what someone or something is like. Stereotypes can be positive, negative or neutral, but they are often inaccurate, or simply wrong! Stereotypes are often based on limited information or personal experience. They can be reinforced by the way something is represented in the media or by cultural messages. Once formed, a stereotype can be difficult to change."
