Making Chromosomes Count Mission Statement: Exploring the fascinating kaleidoscope that is Down syndrome and its community. MCC launched in January 2020, with a vision that has been made possible thanks to a fabulous, passionate, eclectic, and international team of researchers, proof-readers, editors, contributors and other wonderful individuals who keep volunteering time they haven’t really got, in order to join us and help us in our quest to shift perspectives. The team share a passion for raising awareness, amplifying the diverse range of voices within the community and offer a platform to any individual and organisation that seeks to share a story, highlight an issue or raise a campaign about any aspect of living with Down syndrome.
