These ladies are local DSAG friends! 👀👑💙💛

East Tennessee pageant queens Kaci Herron and Madison Woods are taking their talents to the runway at New York Fashion Week.

The longtime friends, who both live with Down syndrome, have spent years competing in pageants and giving back to their communities. Now, they're using their platform to chase a new dream — and inspire others along the way.
