At Kessler Foundation, our researchers are studying ways to support young adults with Down syndrome as they prepare for employment and adulthood.

Using a strength-based approach, this research focuses on helping individuals recognize their abilities, build confidence, and communicate their strengths in real-world situations like job interviews and workplace settings.

If this research area feels meaningful to you or your family, we invite you to learn more about participating.

KF-Stride was so honored to give this webinar to the Down Syndrome community! Thank you to the National Down Syndrome Society for inviting us to be a presenter!

Last week, Dr. Helen Genova from Kessler Foundation joined the National Down Syndrome Society for a webinar exploring a strength-based approach to future success for neurodiverse learners.

The session highlighted KF-Stride™, Kessler Foundation’s research-backed web-based program designed to help teens and adults identify their strengths, build confidence, and work toward personal goals through topics like employment readiness and wellness.

Rather than focusing on what someone is doing “wrong,” KF-Stride™ helps individuals recognize and build on what they’re already doing right.
