This week on The Corie Sheppard Podcast, we sit down with Glen Niles, founder and president of the Down Syndrome Family Network. What started as a deeply personal journey—navigating the unexpected birth of his son Tyrese with Down syndrome—evolved into a national advocacy movement challenging outdated systems, stigma, and silence.
Glen shares the emotional rollercoaster of diagnosis, surgery, and early parenting, and how anger turned into purpose. He opens up about building the Down Syndrome Family Network from scratch, pushing for inclusive education, workplace integration, and most importantly, disability legislation in Trinidad and Tobago.
This is a powerful story about resilience, fatherhood, social transformation, and the fight to move from charity to rights. It’s about what happens when we stop seeing disability as a limitation and start seeing people for their full potential.
