Create an education handout

You are enthusiastic about developing information to share with clients and families with positive genetic testing results. A young couple approaches you and states, “We have siblings with Downs Syndrome. Could we have a baby with this disorder?” You decide to create an educational handout that supports the couple as they search for more information.

Instructions

Create an education handout that contains:

· Description of education before birth for a family concerned their baby may have Down Syndrome, including recommended testing and counseling

· Discussion of education for a family after the birth of a child with Down Syndrome, including resources this family can access now and, in the future, to support the development of the child across the lifespan

· Correct grammar, spelling and APA style and format required
