A lack of transportation shouldn’t prevent anyone from getting the COVID-19 vaccine. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Lyft to help improve access to care for the Down syndrome community when you are ready to get to a vaccine appointment. NDSS, in partnership with Lyft, is offering you a free/discounted ride to your vaccination appointment. Complete the form here to apply for your codes. #LyftUp
