A few stats I just looked up on people with downs syndrome:

- Over 90% of children are enrolled in public school.

  - 79% of those are in general education classrooms.

- Approx. 50% of adults are employed.

50% is awfully low for today's system where you are employed or starving or someone else is your carer.

The employment rate in the USA is only like 59%. Amongst Men over 20 years old it's ~68% and woman ~56% so it's actually not that far off the average.
