The Buddy Walk® was developed by the National Down Syndrome Society in 1995 to celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness Month in October and to promote acceptance and inclusion of people with Down syndrome. The Buddy Walk® has grown from 17 walks in 1995 to nearly 300 walks planned for 2015 worldwide.  In 2014, nearly $13 million was raised nationwide to benefit local programs and services, as well as the national advocacy and public awareness initiatives of NDSS that benefit all individuals with Down syndrome.

SPECIAL SPOTLIGHT THEATRE is a  theatre group for children/adults with special needs.  They meet  at the Henegar Center in  historic downtown  Melbourne .   The long- term goal of the group is to  provide cultural enrichment for all ages. This is an outstanding program that enhances social skills and eye/hand coordination. Performing, dancing  and socializing help to promote high self-esteem and encourage friendship.
